Spending this much time, effort and money on restoring a car means restoring everything that is damaged.

BUT no way will the original ID plate be discarded!

Here my first try for the early ID plate. Smile needs some more work, the process has so many parameters.

That looks good Mika, I will hold off any further progress in the UK on the grounds that you will make an excellent job in the end.

Hopefully I will see you over the weekend at Bad Camberg.
