I collected together a set of pictures covering the full 9 year rolling restoration of my car and stuck it on youtube for anyone interested.

Really enjoyed this, can't wait to see the car in person as you are just up the road from me.

Superb video! Just watched it start to finish. I love the fact you taught yourself the skills along the way like welding and painting. Truly inspiring! And the car looks superb.

What a brilliant video! I take my hat off to you for the patience and self taught skill you gained along the way.
I've undertaken the partial restoration of an old 60's Ford in the past, but nothing like this.
The finished car looks fantastic. Now enjoy!

You do great work and I love the Macgyver exhaust stand. Keep them coming.
