Not updated this in a while. Not very much been happening tbh, havent touched it in weeks. But going to get cracked on and try and have it going this week.

First some new bits, got my inlet manifold, cam carrier and rocker cover powdercoated in metallic silver.



Been waiting on these for about 6 weeks now, being the reason i havent touched it! didnt see the point as i couldnt really do much untill i got the timing covers. Still missing one, but i dont really need it anyway just the top two.



Pushed it out the garage for the first time since January today

Found a tin of paint i got freom the bodyshop that painted the car last year, so decided to give the arches a paint up to freshen the car up a bit. Unfortunatly there wasnt enough to do a thorough job of it, but il order a bit more when i get into work on Monday.








Also hadnt taken any pictures of the interior outside in good light since putting it in. Hadnt even seen it in proper light for that matter




Not 100% happy with the rooflining now that iv seen it in light. So need to play with that a bit.
