So done a few bits to the car over the weekend but not much.

Following parts have arrived.

Vibratecnic engine mounts
Bailey breather
Rear light
Standard clocks
Standard steering wheel
Front Cossie brake bits

So first was to set about sorting the dash out, petrol gauge didn't work, rev counter didn't work etc.

Pic of before.

Then I stripped them down and made 1 good set out of the two, excuse the scratches, the flash went off.

Then it was time to tackle the brakes.

Had a leaking rear wheel cylinder and the fronts were standard, it has S2 rear drums on it already so will stick with these until a decent rear disk conversion comes up.

I also found a split pipe, Jano kindly lent me his pipe flaring kit!

After a shit load of bleeding I finally got a bit if a pedal but still a bit spongy, only done about 1 mile bedding in though so might get better.

Later today I am picking up my GRS cooler and then at some point on the next week me and Jano will be fitting cooler,breather,fans etc.

Then it's ready for mapping!

Fitted rear light and numberplate too but have no pictures yet

Here's a picture of paintwork needed on front, will be going in for this after mapping.
