small update: Well thought i was on target for castle coombe but thats 50/50 at mo just cant seem to get car to start managed to get it to turn over but thats it wont fire.No power going to the fuel pump it would seem and all sorts of clicking coming from the engine bay so will have to seek some help from someone in the know as i aint got a glue

so with that i thought i would least get the front and rear springs changed and get front brakes on etc.................but nope aint got the correct bolts to bolt caliper to the hubs rear springs didnt arrive on time and couldnt get one of the top strut bolts loose either


bloody fed up i am


is this dam car ever gonne get finished
