looks a lot of work, a little more than mine.
Got a build thread anywhere online ?
I see doing it properly as an investment as well.
Didn't start out intending to go that far, it just kind of evolved as the job went on. The car is a keeper, so as far as I am concerned was worth it. Calling it an investment is a stretch though, especially as the car is now so far from original spec. Got a build thread anywhere online ?

Search for my username (same as here) on MX5Nutz, there are a few more pics on there. I really must get copies of all the high res pics from the bodyshop, before they lose them, and do a proper thread.

If you want a proper job doing, it's over £2k (assuming no rust).
I just had a rest free MX5 properly painted including a hard top and it was £3k plus.
This was doors, bonnet, bumpers, boot off, glass out etc.
