Time for a bit of a update:

First I would like to thank James, Kev and even Rob for your help :)

Since the custom work on the G60 engine is taking longer than I had hoped, James kindly did me a great deal on a 1.9TD AAZ engine so we fitted that

I've put some oe lights back up front and orange indicators - also fitted a relay to the front light so they are no longer candles. As they where only hitting 9.3v at idle.


Started fitting some corrado front seats that will get retrimmed back to blue to match the rest


And some new shoes :)


Here's some pics

Still looking sharp.  Great car, how well does it go with the current engine?

Bit of a update:

Then started fitting a westy front








Then decided that it could do with a full paint so started the strip down









That's it for now until it's back from paint

Finished the adjustments to fit the westy front, the bodyshop are popping in tomorrow just to check it over before they take it for paint
