Good evening chaps, going to start panel fitting prior to paint.
Any details on number of rivets on bottom flange of rear shroud and number of fixings etc. on lower front wings (fenders) would help.
Car started like a dream after complete rebuild...delighted!

Just counted the rivets at the bottom of the rear shroud and appears to be 19 of them, spaced just under 3 inches apart. There are 3 bolts at the bottom edge of the front fender. Reasonably sure they are all going through the original holes. My car is a 1960 BT7.
