Polished it and polished it, still purple.
She always wanted a purple sporty car and this is perfect. Not too fast and brilliant handling. -------------------- |

Seeing all of these beautiful cars really makes me want one. In fact I've wanted one for at least a couple months now, damn recession!

Just curious, why was your fender and support on each side of the windshield (holding up the roof) connected? I see when you repaired it, now it's not... but unless I'm missing something really obvious here, that should never have been one piece, right?

Good spotting, I think it's just a combination of average quality photo and shiney wax which makes it look like one piece...
unless that gap where the panels meet had been filled with putty and painted over. -------------------- Mike W

Must be just the picture. There's a gap like in between the wing and the bonnet. About 4 mm. You can only just see it on this picture.
