Thanks for your support guys...

@Ramon2cv: I have checked my front shocks absorbers an they seems to be fitted the right way.

These are Monroes'. Could you please give me more information about it...
I actually might have to change them for harder ones.
Could you please guys give me some more advises on that?

Hi all,

Did I wrote that the projet was finished? That was a big mistake! Indeed, since I last wrote on the forum I did few kilometers with the car but I have some minor issues to fix:
- one welding point broke => welding to be done and paint job to do.
- new rear and front bumpers must be installed as the old ones are rusted and crispy. Which model shoud I fit: large or narrow?
- the soft top must be changed too! With the years the hot sun burnt it and it cracks. Not sure about the color though. Should I leave it dark grey or should I get a white one?
- front arms suspension: got a noice has if it was not properly oiled => must be checked

Any coments?

Narrow white bumpers and the white roof would make it a nice "two-tone" car, right?

Not a big fan of the super shiny paint job, but somehow it makes the car modest and "low", dunno why, seems like that to me.
