Well progress report. This morning on my way to broughton I span out on some mud and demolished the front of my car. (Pics up later) I then got it home and repaired it as much as I could. I have no spare front bumpers any more. I'm back to the original big bumper I bought all that time ago. Haha

Nah it want. 50 mph sideways up a kerb and into a verge. Not a good combo. Sumats pushed my wing all the way in aswell but its all sorted. Neg still lives on

Well bit of an update. Set my air and fuel up and the 16valve is returning 40-45mpg. Not bad for its age really

So a quick update and today had Neg in the workshop to properly mount my exhaust as once again a bracket had broke so it was hanging so low it was scraping on the floor. Not a problem though as it is all mounted on now, jobs a good one. Funny thing though was the fact that when i took it into the workshop i had nearly everyone crowding around it and checking it out, even a lot of people where commenting on how good the rat bonnet was  :grin: :grin: Anyway heres a pic for those people who like updates without pics   :laugh:
