Due to work being very busy over the last 2 or 3 months and sorting out other projects I havent had anytime to update my resto thread That is'st to say the MK1 hasnt had any attention .

First this is the other project (yeah I know its a cack MG Fidget but it is gonna look good when its done) Its a customers car and he's had it from new!!

Anyway managed to turn it from this:



(Its the horrid mustard piece of crap in the background )

To this:





Anyway enought of that Back to me motor


First thing I got done this year was I had the rear end 5 linked. I'd been planning it for a while and was going to do it myself but thought I'd be beter of getting it done by someone that knows best. I took it to Gary at Retromotorsport who did a fooking top notch job Cheers mate

Looks like this underneath now.







Me and liam (bruv) also made a new exhaust from scratch which fits much better than anyone you can buy, which is nice Ive fitted 5 different types over the years and this is th best.

Also had a new screen put it which has replaced the old tuffend one to a brand new laminated one.


NICE

Got a new tank goin in:



And im doing some work on the cage to strengthen up the car but I havent finished thet cos its alot harder than it looks













Upfront hasnt been left out either Got brand new Wilwood 4 pots with fast road discs and pads. Hopefully the brakes dont go all soggy when on track or on the way to and from work anymore .













Anyway thats it for now, Thanks for looking
