That's an epic amount of work going into that.......

Will the purple be with flake? (no Cadbury pun intended)

Now that is fucking fantastic. My late brother in law had a number of VX4/90's and had he still lived, he would have built something along those lines.

Really hope it all works out OK.

I had the saloon version years ago and loved it. This looks fab. Very 70s custom! Needs a porthole in the rear panels. (Goes to the loft to retrieve old Hot Car mags...)

I had considered it!

Deciding to do away with the screen rubbers, and flush fit the glass was the trickiest bit. Front screen meant welding in a new support structure, on the rear we sectioned the rear tailgate, and moved it up ( hence slit) that slit is going to be the aperture for the new rear light clusters.

Did it have / will it get a fabric sunroof (Webasto)?

Dibs. Like seriously.

My original plan in the 90s was having my Ventora done in purple with purple/white seats, white vinyl top. At the same time I cleared obsolete vauxhall spares FE stock and filled my VX2300 estate with panels - but then my twat of a garage broke my Ventora, lost the chassis rails I'd given them to fit, and I sold my VX (panels included) because I was so thoroughly fucked off with it all. This is my /dream/ spec from the first things seen and I really hope it turns out amazing.

I had a nasty aftermarket glass sunroof. Made the hole a lot bigger, and putting a bronze polycarbonate panel in
