Hello guys,

I bought this Brat long time ago, but haven't started on it due to other projects and the fact that it has a crack in the roof window. Now you can buy lots of window parts from rere and Mud Blaster, but their all dark coloured while the original is clear. I finally found an original window, so decided to start resto.
