Nowhere near as bad. I also plan to get it solid underneath and reliable to run (at least initially). Will have to sort the rear valance and the front wheel arches for the MOT man. Underneath will need rear jacking points and rear quarters on the sills. Will also rebuild/refurb the brake and fuel systems along with full service.

Bodywork and interior for now will remain as it is apart from a clean and polish.

Hi, as a fellow Daimler V8 250 owner I wondered what progress you're making on the restoration?

Best wishes, Dave B
