Just curious who else on here has been watching the restoration of the XU1 on Youtube by Adamson Autobody.... Somewhere over there on your side of the ditch!!!

 

From someone who is not a panel beater at all what they do seems bloody mint to me!

It's been a very good watch and extremely detailed.
The car will end up top notch but I do get nervous when I wonder what the restoration bill will come to.

LOL.... I've wondered that as well. Because of their meticulous attention to detail they sure have put some hours into that car. And even at an average hourly rate I'm sure the bill is really  getting up there.
