Both doors on now. and the alum trim and latchs.

Getting real sparse for things to do here.

Wife asked when the bonnet goes on, I said when the next 500 bucks worth of parts is installed, that should give her a bit of modivation, I hope. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/yesnod.gif

You've probably discussed this before but what did you do restoration wise to your aluminium trim?
 
Striped the anadozing off with "oven off" and polished the heck out of it with a wheel and then by hand.

I have located an anadozer who says he will do the cockpit trim and whe windsheld for 180 bucks

I've been toying with the idea of croming the cockpit surround pieces. I cromed the wings that hold the windshield yrs ago and they have always looked nice. I know you are really trying to go exactly origonal, but what do you think.
 
In fact I like the polished alum bit. The wings were cast rather than extruded so have a different look in any case.
