I'm going back today to see if the skirts will come off readily so I can examine the sills as above.
A couple of questions, (no doubts lots to follow!),
1; Am I likely to be able to get the colour back into the plastic body parts by polishing? It's a shame about the laquer peeling on the rest of the body, it looks like it would have "T-cutted" quite well. Did the laquer stay on cars that had been kept polished? Or did it peel on all cars?
2;Is it possible to re-finish the wheels as original? (I will be looking to restore the car as original as possible).
3; Am I likley to have any problems with the brakes seizing after being stood for so long?
Thanks for the help and info, I'm really looking forward to getting stuck into this car and using it, a T-Bar would have been nice...but not crucial. Roughly how many MK1s are still in service in the UK?
