Few tiny blisters on one arch, 1 x 2p size on front sill seam and 1 x 1p size on the other rear arch. Will be sorting all this when it comes to the spray job. The car is still a bit tatty but im sorting all that over time. Just fitted a facelift 8v gearknob as mine was a big squared rubber one same as in the early fronteras. Found a good cream leather interior at a local scrappys, which im tempted to fit as it will look more modern and I like it, and seeing as the SE came with cloth and the option of either leather interiors, this will not detract from keeping it as standard as possibly with minor tweeks

The 'SE' only had the option of Black leather, not cream...so i'd stick with the black if keeping it standard and originality are your goals :)

Thanks for the info, need to find a good quality drivers seat. Im sure the original owners wife said they had the choice of both, but she is 60 now and suffered a stroke recently and sometimes doesnt remember 100%
