I was born in 71, but its two grand plus for a turbo, and I can not mis space plates due to where I have to park and work, these were a £20 bargin though. (would put black and silver plates but can't for the same reason, does not stop anyone else though).
Great progress Tony. The convertible rear needs a bit of more time with panel alignment than the hardtop just give me a call if you need any more pointers.

First dry fit, arches need cutting rear end is a few inches out, its the first fit.
Funnily enough, I was given a bottle of Bacardi oakheart! Its a bit sweet but itscheaper than heating the workshop! Prefer organs spiced, if anyines lustnin!
Looking great Tony - Have you chosen what colour to paint it.
If Chris had these before i started my build i would have definitley built a car like yours - probably with the aston style front.
If you haven't seen my Roadster thread next door in the Sammio forum it might be worth a look.
Good progress. Nice flares!
Interesting you mention undersell. My rear arches are undersealed, apart from the outer 3" !!lane:
Thats how it was from new. No wonder they rust on the arches! Not much to stop water getting past the flanges and spot welds. They may not all be the same mind!
, I told you so moment from Chris, no plate too low, saw a Masarati in London last week with similar low plate, just have to avoid speed humps. 
progress Keep the rubber stops and drill them out as spacers for the bonnet hinges.
