You need some better pics mate,

looks ok but don't like the headlights.
Spent 4 hours cleaning it yesterday to get some photos but the car just got filthy again, I want to get the standard lights and longbeach alloys to make it look standard as possible, no rust apart from on the wing which I'm happy with

car is once again filthy after not even 10 miles  :angry:
the squealing noise that can only be known as a pair of chipmunks, is actually the alternator pump back bearing, so coated it in wd40 to stop it squealing and now need to source an alternator, other then that, it's pretty ship shape!
