Ya Thanx Bro 4 ur concern. The Project is still under process. Kindly u ppl guide me abt uploading of images.Its original colour is Metallic Silver. I do wanted to change it a little bit. But my garage men say ''keep the original color''.I'm thinking of ''Midnight Silver Metallic''.

paint job must be very very professional ... to get the best out from the looks of the car :thumbup:
Yess you are uploading them right, we all can see them properly.As far as the color is concerned, the painter is saying right because changing the original color scheme affects the resale value so far but only when you change the whole color scheme for example from silver to blue/red. If you are planning to go for midnight silver so it means you're staying in the boundaries of its original silver color and just changing a little shade, so it wont be a problem but keep the engine bay, inner trunk of the car in its original color, will be beneficial for you in the future.
Bonnet restored & re-inforced with the help of Gas Welding.
Lovely choice of the vehicle. Keep up the good work. @badpigs

Doors, Front & Rear Fenders' Restoration and alignment by Denting.
Making Horizontal Lines/Curves Prominent on fenders and doors.
I'm try to describe every experience of mine with u all and there is nothing to be hidden. I'm restoring it as a hobby. Any good /wise advice on u ppl behalf 'll be highly appreciated. My aim of uploading these pix is to help others. As many parts of this vehicle are either highly expensive or isn't available in the vicinity. So in the coming pix, u ppl 'll see many modification which I made. Plus I made those parts which r not available in near by markets.e.g., the old Rear License Plate Holder was all rusted. So I guide my denter Nadeem to make its Replica by using 20 gauge Galvanized Steel Plate.
Replica License Plate Holder
Front Brim Molding Patti above bumper isn't available anywhere in the vicinity. Specially its Left Corner is completely out of shape.So I hired another Denter named Akram for the remaking of the ''Left Corner of Front Brim Patti Molding above bumper''. Well he charged me very high for ''Front Show''. He re-designed the whole Front Show, Lights, Fenders' Corner , Side Indicators' fittings, Front Bumper's Support and Front Tyres' shields supports. The result is as under.
Hope for an awesome restoration thread subscribed
The front bumper's support was all rusted and out of shape. So denter Akram made it by utilizing 20gauge Galvanizes Steel Plate.
