What's the cause of the colour difference between door and quarter panel? Had a repair at some point? Have you dared to take the skirts off yet

My "weldking" did the doohickey with the triggerwicky and repaired an AC pipe...

Good progress
Can't imagine how nice it will be to have working AC in a 306 - good effort in restoring it
Looking forward to a first start soon

so if anyone wants a memory-jog on how it feels, pop round.
It goes, it stops (as reqd).

What looks like very little has taken many evenings work; custom bits done to both mounts, all the covers, plus bolted all aux bits on and bottom pulley on.
Fuel filter housing cut up to allow for 16v injector rail. Injectors also in with new seals/washers. Lines all on.
Also made up 9 studs for the exhaust flange. Copper shiny nuts for the win.
Cooling stuff on too. Beefy oil line also on. Done a few bits that not taken pics of tbh.
Awaiting aux belt... Then its time to hang it in an engine bay. Friday all being well.
