Checking her over

I went to visit the car today. It was about a 10hr round trip but well worth it.
These pictures don't really show the car in much detail, but they do show the size of the job ahead!






The tub has been separated from the chassis and more or less stripped to the gel coat. There are a fair few stress cracks as expected and I will have to read up a bit on what to do with these.

There is an exciting collection of boxes containing every thing from rubber seals, wiring and so on to essential looking bits of metal, some of which I recognise and others not. Its like a jigsaw without the picture on the lid. I am very pleased to report that the bumperettes are all there (almost impossible to find apparently) and there are duplicates of some of the parts including at least two pairs of rear lights. 

Its just a question now of working out how to transport the car.
