I had busses with the gauge too, don’t think any of them worked very well. Always just wrote the mileage on the dash and winged it! All part of the fun

Wanted to get the steering column in while I had the rotisserie on, to make it easier for me. New bearings/races/bushes and seal. Ready to go in..

Roof painted. Will get colour sanded and buffed once the whole body is painted. Sprayed mouse grey under the Pearl white.

Thanks guys, yes Matt all in high fill.

Whole outside of the car blocked ready for final prime, seam seal and Mouse grey. Also first time off the rotisserie and out of the shed since January 2021 when I started the repairs.
