Soo close now!
Almost done!
Car is ready to start up now. Just waiting on some new front TCA's so I can torque up the wheel bearings and get her back on her new wheels.
New rubber
Spent a while refinishing and fitting all the bailey tanks. Only to find the old screw caps are non transfrable. The washer bottle has on hole for fitment of the pump and the header tank has a spare out let
Anyway have taken them all off ond gone back with the originals just to get her on the road again
exhaust manifold ready to go on
new fuel and brake line clips
Lovely new arch liners
Soo close now!

Yeh bits are still available, ebay or the classifeds on here are your best bet. You may also benifit from using a trader on here to supply it, you will pay more for it, but its a safe way to do things.
Or if you can hold off we will probably be coming back next year, I could sneak a grill in the mrs suit case!
Well done. Is she finished and ready to hit the streets???
