That car will be good for another 20 years!
Hope the doors fit back ok.
Your diag braces should have kept the openings rigid

The 33 passed its test today. I've treated myself to some road tax for Christmas.

Well done Craig,
A good lockdown job started last year.
What year/engine is it?
Only ever seen close ups of welds!

Spot on. Well done.
I loved my S2, it was just like yours with the early Zender kit . 1.7 with the five spoke alloys and lowering springs.

Nice looking car . Nice colour. What's with the square petrol flap?

Like your car, filler cap area had rotted out , so when I replaced the sills, wheel arches, tailgate and back panel I grafted in the filler flap and box from an Alfasud Sprint that was scraped. I also used the plastic filler pipe to connect it to the fuel tank.

Some job - fantastic.
Can I scrounge a big favour. Would you be able to take a picture of the fusebox for me to compare against. Looking mainly at relay numbers to compare against.

I've got a repair panel to go in . I've also been looking at a quarter panel . I do like your idea though!

It would be reasonably easy to weld in. My problem is the colour is hand mixed with a pearl. So will be very hard to match.

You sir, are a legend. Thank you. Are you able to say if that one on the right hand side of your pic is for the rear fog lights? On my sprint that is the one that does the interior light dimmer. The one that is blank on your pic is the mystery one for me. But I think you have confirmed for me the relay that is needed and what it does.
Really appreciate your help. Mine is below.

There is a paint matching technique where they photograph and match your existing colour.
Colourtone use it near me.

The filler cap was picked up on the mot as an advisory so thought I better sort it. Still some work to do but not bad for a days work.

I've not been able to do much for a while but the anoying sound of the exhaust banging away prompted me to get on with this job.
