Looking real nice!.... can't wait to see it complete
P.S; did you drop the shock mounts in with your other parts in the peroxide bath?

Re: - Early Team Car resto -
Thanks for the kind words guys, I'm having fun with this one, taking care of every single part and trying to use a minimum of new parts (that is screws so far). Front end is now ready to receive nose tubes and turnbuckles. Got clean ball cups? Stay tuned buddies!

Re: - Early Team Car resto -
Some update, finally with some sunlight, added e-clips, shocks and turnbuckles. Now onto wheels, the OE ones were not in the kit, so I'll have to dig into my stuff. I am also looking for the AE black spur if anyone has a spare one...

Re: - Early Team Car resto -
Finally found some time to take pictures of the early Team Car sitting on wheels. I tried to replicate the car on the side of the original box as much as I could.
