Allot of progress since i last checked in here! Looking forward to seeing it out in the sunlight as thats when the pearl should come into its own! 
 

Any other new bits fitted to the shell before the rebuild? New screens, rubbers ect?

The front screen actually doesn't have a mark on it and thankfully the rear windows and boot window came out ok, decided to completely flush the bootlid, lock and rear wiper gone - only thing rubber wise is the roof runners managed to find two as mines are tired and look tatty

Made a new splitter for the car to plenty more updates coming this year as I've got all genuine White face Defis to go in him

 

And cheers Tyler can't wait to get him out in the sun to appreciate the paint

New roof rubbers are leagues apart from old stuff. I had the same approach with my windscreen, then found that toyota only charge £145 or something! 🤨

looking forward to seeing some pictures 😄

Yes mate glanza kind of took over 😂😂 it's nearly finished to me enjoy it and in a couple of years build an engine up... Few times I'd see the car it was sickening me but I think it turned out pretty good even if it was a bit obsessive lol
