Anyone can restore a classic, but it takes guts to cut one up!

Thanks greedy for the comments, you got me motivated to do some more.
I have now started to do the wiring and have decided to mount the fuel gauge in the bonnet.

I have some lighting left over from a past project and was thinking of doing some kind of interior/exterior mood lighting.

Post your comments as I am open for suggestions.

Think I might go looking for some wheels, going to go standard rims and caps, only seriously wider at the back, not sure whether to go skinny or fat on the front?

Got some new wheels for her, I'll post some pics soon.

I've been in the workshop welding up the support beams for the conversion to convertible. They have come up a treat!!

Will be welding them in place as soon as the Engineer approves the welding. Once that's done the body can go on the chassis and time to cut the roof off, waahoo!!

I'll post some pics soon!!

P.S if anyone wondered why she is called rene, it means Reborn in french.
Born as a beetle, reborn as a volksrod.
