Probably about time i updated this thread.
Anyway the end of the metal work is insight. B pillar, wheel tub, straightened front frame etc is in place and all lining up nicely.
Not far off the front skin now.

Not too much to add here.
Front floor is in and the lower a pillars are done, one donor and one repro.
Hope to get some more done tomorrow, close to giving it a face again.
