Cheers
Why thank you kind sir.
The Mrs has allowed them temporary residency in the kitchen which makes me very happy indeed. I can't help but keep looking at them adoringly. How can seats look THIS good??!!

Great read and glad to see the car being restored.
The velour on the seats has come up like new, really impressed with that given how they look to have been treated by the previous keeper.
This is going to be a cracking read following the resto.
Nothing to see here.... move along in an orderly fashion please!

Holy thread revivals Batman!
Does anyone know if this resto thread was finished elsewhere? It looks like A486ETO eventually passed an MOT in Apr-21 at 83,193 miles
