As some of you know my car was defected by Regency back in November for some rust under the front and rear windscreens. Well i finally got it into the paintshop at MC Doyles towards the end of last month and just thought i would put up some progress of how its going. Instead of just getting the rust repaired i am now getting the whole top half of the car repainted and a few other bits and pieces aswell. Here are a few pics of the car the day i took it down to the paintshop, as you can see i stripped everything off it myself before i took it down. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
