![]() I've seen enough wallpaper and paint of late, I'm tinkering this week to get my head back together. I cut up a very rusty Mk3 Cortina GXL the other day, I got some fairly good rear wheelhouses from it, rust in the usual places but saveable. I started to play with them yesterday, I have two from an old MK5 I stripped a few years ago. The bits I need I've cut from the 5's and started to graft them into the Mk 3 ones. They are very expensive if they come up for sale anywhere, £300 a side when they do, two door ones are plentiful but won't fit. I hope that when I've dressed down the welds they will be like new. I'm only short of two panels now and that's it, I'll have the next best thing to a new shell, the first `new` MK3 2000E for forty years.

That's a top neat job, Blimey! £300 a side, I didn't know they were that expensive.
