cheers dudes, had some pics of the fez on here before so will dig them out . its been put to sleep in the garage at the mo .
missed out on the twin webs on fleabay so will keep an eye out for a second set.

cool that that so far the new engine owes me less than 250!

got some cossy 4 pot calipers on the way aswell .

might have to treat her to a front end freshen up but dont want to start ANOTHER project lol..
