Can I suggest that you look at replacing the current seats, nice condition as they are in, with some sports seats which you can give the works before fitting. Several people who have sat in my sports seats (just standard and used for 100k miles) have commented how much more comfortable than the standard ones. If you don't get to try some before we will see you (hopefully) on the Lakes Cruise, although I think @Jjim may be nearish to you and he has done a seat swap on his.

100% agree. I replaced my standard seats with sports seats, I've done long distances in both but the sports seats are my fav mod I've done on my whole car. Very comfy.

This is going to be a slow one mate as the parts that I can't replace I am getting powder coated, I am even splitting the hubs and fitting new bearings and back plate, also getting the hubs powder coated, it should look like new when done.
I am planning on starting the main body work once the mechanics are done,
I got a new radiator as well today so will be doing a front engine rebuild, including all pully's, belts and pump

I will have to paint under the arches very soon though, as once the struts are out it will need doing before they are put back, I am almost settled on a colour,
