Maybe someone will be interested in this. Im currently restoring my dad's Aston. I just thought I would send you a pic.

More will follow as I move on...

The body work will come...I have found rust under the doors, on the outer chasis. besides that, there is a small dent in the right front side (done by a stupid moron backing into the car) and another dent done by myself just after the front right weel arch....

Other body work will be a complete respray.

Body looks pretty darn good to be honest. So are you going to completely restore it or do some custom work to it?

Complete restoration. The only custom work will be a lead free conversion, an electronic starting unit and an electronic fuel pump. The rest will be restored to original. Even the paint will be the correct Aston color code.

Looks like the restoration is coming along nicely. Should be cool to see done. I wish I was that far along in my restoration.

looks like the car is in very good shape in that picture. Is that a picture of you first starting on it? Or do you have a few months in that car in the picture.

You are right, its not possible to see very much of the state of the car. I will update you on Monday with new pics of the work done and the work to do!
