Back from the trimmers UPDATED passed MOT!

[Phil]

I really must create a project thread but for the moment the rocco came back from the trimmers on friday after having the headlining replaced and a NOS Britax Weathershield fitted which I found on ebay about a year or so ago as the original had totally disintegrated inside.

Some pics when picked up from the trimmers:







also collected the wheels form the powder coaters, really pleased with them hoping they look not too dissimiliar to original factory spec?




And a few externals, excuse the steelies and the bumpers




Weekend was spent fitting the rear quarters and windscreen and most of the interior has been refitted:




just waiting for the tombstone seats to come back from the valeter, fingers crossed MOT next week and on the road for Feb

Fabulous retro roof - looks like a good job.

Wheels are looking great too.

Looking good!
Sunroof works well, and I do love the colour!!

Hope my liner looks as good when I get it done.

Fantastic Phil!

I recognise that workshop - give Keith a nod from me when you see him

Will do Ant, I think he will be glad to have the space back and get some work done on his own cars rather than mine!!! The pictures don't really do justice to the work he has done on it.

Thats a great colour choice.
Those wheels will set it off too

Looks great, can't wait to see it finished

[Phil]

Thanks for all the kind comments :)

She is booked in for Mot next Thursday so fingers crossed

[Phil]

Had to drive her out in horrible wind and rain this morning but all worth it as she now has a fresh MOT

Lovely! Congratulations, now time to enjoy

[Phil]

thanks Ed, funny how we both started with Ancona blue twins as resto's 3 years ago and both ended up with something totally different

[Ryan]

Great news - let's hope you get some decent driving weather...

Hopefully we can get our brown mk1s together sometime soon.

That looks fantastic. Are you sure you didn't time travel back to the 70's, buy a brand new Rocco and bring it back to the present day? It really does look that good, a credit to you Sir.
