Well thought id revive this. About time.
Working on it each weekend, but engine went two weeks ago, after getting it all sorted, radiator had a leak. So had to order one.

Got more bits from people and ended up with Groved and Drilled Discs. WOOOO.

So all will be fitted this weekend, and new radiator will be put in.
Sprayed it last week black, just fancy a wee stencil on it before it goes in.

Well more work this weekend, much to the delight of fee.dee

Worked on it from saturday till sunday.

Basically, new rad in, (old one had a hole in it), painted up.
Old loom out, new loom half in.

All suspension and rear arms sorted.

All that needs done is dash half out to get plugs and fuse box in. Sorted i think to get it started.

Only casualty is the caliper, its seized, not to worry, one ordered.

I'd rebuild those calipers too, were the best ones I had, went on a few different Mk1's before yours. Shame.

I want to say good progress but i can't bring myself to say it, Happy birthday instead.
