Very nice! Those brake lines are standard brake pipes or hoses (i mean something flexible) ? Thanks

Constantly checking this thread for updates! Fantastic to see an old favourite resurrected, and especially doing it justice to a very high standard.

Good luck with the rest of the project!

got another few hours at it last night, got the interior nearly in just the passenger seat and glove box to fit and got the new gauges wired in and powered up.






also got the bumper back from the body shop,i didn't like the hole and mesh martin had in it so I decided to get it filled



paul got the electrics powered up and pleased to say everything is working as it should so now the loom can be taped up and engine fitted.

Looking good! And slightly off topic but those old petrol pump signs (the esso and others) look really cool too (saddo that likes old garage memorabilia here).

Bit late to the party regarding the tape on the coil overs, but if you are thinking of doing something you should look at this. Its like a a rubber electrical tape. We used to use it on outdoor fittings on radio masts and works really well. I use it for anything and everything and would be perfect for this job. it sticks to itself and you just stretch it so it grips. Taking it off is either finding the end and unwinding or cutting it off. Brilliant stuff.
