New metric wheels and tyres on, dash finished, cowl on, steering wheel on, finally off axle stands, got it starting on the key and revs well.
All internal trim found. Next job is to finish the interior, re-trim the centre consol with red carpet, bolt the front seats and seatbelt slalks in.
Then put an electic sunroof in and headlining

Although the car runs it's very lumpy and hit and miss on running properly so....new parts going in on one of my spare carbs.
The carb on it was from my black turbo that a problem started. I swopped over another and cured it. Although I cleaned all the problem started again on this car. Big flat spot so I will replace with anotherLast edited by Jeff Turbo; 12th March 2016, 15:24.1958 Ford Consul Convertible. I love this car
