Picked the car up from a member on here a while back, One of the oil cooler hoses split on the way back (great start!), so i had somenew hoses made up which meant i could route them properly and mount the cooler nicely.
Next i Sorted the suspension, the car was stupidly low when i picked the car up, the manifold would be scraping on the floor at the slightest bump, so i put some 40mm springs but these are cheap crap, so ive purchased some 2.0 conversion springs from adam b on here and have spax adjustable struts and 60mm spax rear springs to go on.
The car needs a bit of work, im going to paint the bonnet the original colour and one of the doors needs a respray to get it looking good.
Plans for it are:
- Tidy up the engine bay
- Fit Rev counter clocks
- Strip the car out
- slim fan
- more gauges
