Wahay!! I've lost my Virginity!!
Well, its taking me two weeks to get through this thread. Awesome read!
Thanks for making me miserable about how untidy my car is compared to yours.
Keen to read how you go with the hydraulic clutch conversion with regards to the MC and slave cylinder sizing and pedal-clutch feel

gearbox oil turned up this week,great service from the oilman
mike re-done the brake lines in steel for me,much better job than in copper and you don't have to paint them,ill try and get some pics of them fitted next time im working on the car.
new wheel arch liner in place(anyone got a decent n/s one for sale?)
spent a couple of hours cleaning up the exhaust,i will have this remade at some point as its not to my liking and also the tail pipe is too small.

from what I remember on the drive home(four years ago)it did sound nice and not too loud cruising on the motorway,not that I done much cruising lol.
ive followed your car since you got it and you've done a cracking job with it,given more time and money id love to have mine with similar spec to yours.

they'll be mint once painted up glenn,looking for a decent set of pads to go with them.
polished alloy is nice shaun but once its badly scratched you cant do much with it,they may end up powder coated.
got the header tank fitted today:
got the swirl pot and hose fitted:
made up the power steering return hose in Teflon:
last job of the day I got one of the AP'S blasted:

he does sponsor certain cars which get priority which I can fully understand,but my order was placed back in april and only half of it has arrived.
the problem with pete is he cant tell anyone NO,which just adds to his work load and mine have been getting pushed to the back of the list of things to do for months.

I have been away Jay but been back two weeks now, I have done bits and pieces recently but nothing major, I'll update later on tonight.
Cheers Chris, yeah Pete is holding me up a bit, he's told me the last of my tanks will be sent out Monday so hopefully have them fitted this week.
