| well been meaning to pop this up for a while but didnt get the chance. i got it off tom as some of u may know, ive mainly been scratching my head over the running issue it has, oh and scratching guy's head as well lol. well ive finally nailed it i think, just got to set up the timing and fueling at weekend, put new stat in and flushed the cooling system done a oil and filter change new coolent temp sensor and all new silicone vacuum lines, but since i got it ive had 2 interiors in it and now reverted back to the original for comfort, ive raised it up on the coilovers slightly and give them a good clean up and removed brakes and cleaned and painted them oh and polished the edges of the adaptors up.........i managed to get hold of some us side indicator blanks so poped them in and while i was painting them i painted the rear badge too, and painted the front and rear vw badges black to freshen them up also got shot of the ariel and blanked it off so now hhave a stelth ariel in the inner wing that seems to work great. and really just cleaned the whole thing up, please excuse the pics with odd coloured wheels i was just playing about to see what colour i want to go with them, im getting the roof and grill painted as soon as funds allow, then we will see where it go's from there. its been sat on my drive for a month now so its in need of a clean lol, so once i have give it a meguires treatment i will pop some more pics up comment welcome | |

| Yeah the pipe was the issue mate, replaced it and temp sensor, fiddled with mixture and its all good, timing is still not quite right but got a timing light now so going to set the timing in the morning then go and use a gas anyliser and set the mixture up.
Aha the discs! Lol I got some new ones but not got round to putting them on. | |
