It's a hell of a "bog_n_flog" job that's for sure!
I'm still semi interested in this car, I'm working very hard on some kind of way to justify it :)

Jay, good work mate! I love seeing good workmanship on repaired vehicles, I have a lot of admiration for the likes of yourself that have this level of skill!

I was wondering if you had forgotten to post the pics of the valves - I'm interested in seeing them ;)

Hope you get it on the road soon to enjoy your work.

Cheers

She lives once again... Massive shout out to subarino for sorting my wiring issues, turns out the problem i had with the alarm and fuel was related. As well as the brant keypad immobilzer there was another alarm that was stuffing up, pulled that out, primed the fuel a few times and she's idling like a baby...

only issue now is the electrical connector in the steering wheel that has the wound up band of wires in stuffed, so need one of those to get the horn working and steering wheel airbag...

Bleed the brakes and she's good to go over the pits, oh and gotta get a chip on the windscreen fixed....mike:)
