That is a really tidy looking car - my preference is always for cars that look original which that one does. Look forward to seeing how you get on.

They can come with the bulb holder soldered so that the tail lights are lit constantly, I did wonder why mine were until someone explained, I'm not sure if this makes them legal.

That looks very tidy indeed. Especially that close up of the that wheel looks brand new.
