my 1969 elf mk3

been driving this a few months now, few things need to be done its good shell but few things on it are not orginal so tryin to get the things back to orginal, starting off first with a paintjob as the guy before who painted it had left a few runs in it n bits bare so this week its gettin painted, the engine is a 1275 metro so i gonna paint it green to look abit period, the interior needs to be got and a few small things so il post a few pics at what she looks like now.

Trying to fathom why there's an oil cooler fitted?

so the oil looks cool when it's hanging out around the engine silly!

Finally got it painted turned out really well pretty pleased with outcome so now few more bits needed done then back together, wheels are only on for painting





pics where taken with my mobile

Looking good
Keep pics of build up coming.

Thanks would like a few more orginal bits but hard to come by plus its to be a cheap project

I suggest you draw up a list of what you're short of so we folks can see if we have any bits.

looking good

Got bit more done tonight, rear lights in, an then to drill few holes for the side strips which was a pain as the rivots where to big so had to grind them down. also the clips themselves where badly made as the holes where all different, so after a few hours of jigging them an help from couple of mates we got them sorted,

slow progress but ive got the strips on etc
