got a few new bits recently. mate off another forum sorted me with some new shocks for the back to replace the gash Gmax ones. *cough*shit*cough*. also got some gauges off him, only tim, nowt flashy but will do the trick. got busy today fitting them into the plastic mk1 dash i got off the same forum and ended up like this:





chopped the bottom of the dash off, took the steel bracing out from inside and all the venting shite out as havent got a heater. blanked the vent holes off with some ally sheet. bit of glue got squashed through to the outside though so need to slice that out with a blade and itll look alright then. weighs about the same as a wet fag paper which is good too!

also, at the EFE show i went to in holland this weekend i picked up a brand new genuine ford cossie clutch plate for all of 30 euros! bargain i thought till a mate told me he got one from the same place but at a UK show a few years back for a tenner :blub: still a bargain though. offered it upto the 2.0 flywheel and fits perfect so should work well. just gotta get my hands on a good condition cossie clutch cover and ill be away. might have to redrill the flywheel but no big deal really.





also, not really very exciting but got a new rocker, gonna give it a lick of satin black to get shot of the logos and it should look sweet as.



tomorow i plan to get busy putting the bootlid on a diet. gonna take all the wiper shite off, then chop the frame out so its just a skin, then weld a small brace from the lock to the barrel so i can keep the normal lock. might get some perspex aswell if i get time!

also been thinking about a new colour scheme but cant make my mind up....
