Nice (I like the first picture).

With those 5-spokes it reminds me of mine when I got it.

Update on this:

Elec windows are working although the switch for the passenger window doesnt work of the drivers switch as theres a bad earth somewhere in the loom.

I have G60 discs+callipers with drilled discs and pagid pads. I need to get round the the mk2 golf servo mod (i have one sat there doing nowt)

I have rejetted the weber and am saving my pennies to rolling road it.

Ive pollished it but it needs a repaint as the Previous Keepers painted it badly. Looks nice and sharp at 10ft but is not good when you start looking.

Ive put a new clutch in it.

Its had a new cambelt after the fiasco of having the wrong bottom pulley on it.

New altenator (fitted in the snow outside the house-Proper hard me! I couldnt be arsed driving the 3 mile to the lock up in the snow for a 10Min job. I freezed my knackers off instead).

Its had a coolant flush and all new igntion bits and a 2 oil and filter changes so far.


I have a piper cam to go in next and need to build a manifold to fir some bike carbs.
