Thanks for all the thumbs up! (especially from the Key Members!)
It does help, but note I am not an attention whore.
Looking through this thread has made me realise I talk too much considering the average viewer only really wants pictures!
Trial fit of bonnet will be done as soon as humanly possible, no later than this weekend.
Thanks Dom for the illustrated reminder
Looks good. What do you *actually* want to do with it once it's complete?
With the time you've put into it you're going to be a brave man the first time you take it out on the road and the first time you give it full beans.
Thanks, I plan to get it Turbo Charged then compete in some Hill Climb events!
(Caister, most of those cars are normally aspirated!)
Seriously though it's a valid question. I think most friends (especially the one who was with me on crash day) think I should tootle about in it as a weekend summer toy, my father in law says I should track it and take it to the ring.
I wouldn't mind a bit of both but fear (for the car) the latter. Also it's nowhere near prepared for it.
I gave it plenty of beans when I got it, she pulled like a train, so much better than it's standard predecessor. Even now the motor seems very keen despite being out of the bay for 6 years. I need to change the cambelt and get it tuned by a professional, at some point could do with some head work too. After that I think I will have no proplem planting my foot, and for old times sake I might even be tempted to run over a few "travellers" with it after a couple of nudge bar modifications.
In all honesty I do fear for the car on public roads a little now though.
