They used to have a wall upstairs with loads of really old pred spares.

Thanks for that, emailed them on Friday, see if they can help out.

Have emailed them too! I want to get the car to a theoretical working state, but it's too pretty to run now. Plus the amount of work to get the tub looking like that was ridiculous! I sanded most of the scratches out, and filled the deeper ones with layers of clear laquer and then sanded and smoothed them all out with wet and dry. I have to say if you get down to the actual fibres, it's the devils own job to get any paint to take. Lots of "dry" coats later it had enough on it to polish up.

I was fortunate when I bought the car as it came with 3 new driveshafts, a full set of new wishbones, and both the one way and solid prop shafts. It also came with 2 different lower diff casings for the rear, one normal, the other with anti-squat geometry for the lower wishbones, which I'd not seen before.

the only other niggles at the moment are the 4 battery locator blocks, which i have, but that have stripped inside a bit, and the super short self tappers are missing, no big problem though.
