What would be wrong with the head light wiper, it looks normal to me. I think it's the upper edge of the license plate that you might be looking at.

The car looks great, but is it an original one? The fuel filler cap suggests it's a post 1990 body, but it is 2wd from looking at the front brake caliper.

I think it's just a reflection on the front bumper that makes it look like the wiper is pointing forwards. Noooooo I had clears and smoked but I bloody hate them and took them off lol.

Hi Marc , are your cars all left hand drive? Hows that temperature gauge reading? Mine is still working fine.

Yes they are all left hand drive. Being in the passenger seat of a RHD Sierra was a really weird experience. It felt like I had to be driving, being in that position, but without pedals and a steering wheel.

The temperare gauge is perfect! I am still really pleased that it now again is how it should be.

Its a bloody boat anchor Jay.

The only other yb i have seen with a big damper on was the Jems 1000bhp one.

Just interested i guess with Rods high rpm's it needs all the help it can get to stop it resonating apart.
