not alot if i had a massive garage i know i would have the interior vertually finished too by now but i dont have the space to rip the exterior and the interior apart

got a pannel beater coming round next week to evaluate how long and when bodywork will be completed just wants beers and takeaways for doing the job! which is awesome! then respray in november then get cracking on the interior! will be drivable when exteror is together
