Yes,it looks cool already, just fix the rust holes and its good to go. Was that cool old place where you bought it? I like it also.

Thanks for your reply!

The place on the photo is a small castle in Belgium and was the house of the first and only owner of the car who died in the eighties.
The car was discovered there about five years ago in the shed where the coach and horses used to be and I bought it from this guy.

It will not be easy to fix the front fenders because these are really far gone and the patch panels will not cover the rusted (or missing) areas.
New ones are too expensive so maybe a pair of fiberglass ones for the time being till I find some decent steel ones or does somebody have a better idea?[S
