We've manage to retain virtually of of the original components.

The chassis was spot on apart from a bit of bubbling on the rear cross member so that was replaced.
The original doors weren't quite perfect so they've been swapped out.

Everything else has been stripped refurbed and repainted apart from obvious service items (brakes, clutch, shocks).

The standard of the work the guys at LR Panels did on 05KD65 is way above what I was expecting when I sent it off to them last year.
Also happy that we've had to replace very few parts other than service items.

So last week 05KD65 was back out on the tarmac parked up next to the Red Arrows, 30 years after they were last together!
