Cheers lads, and agreed with the wheels but being winter I'm loving that I can jet wash them and they look new!

Rocker cover back from the polishers

Looking good mate, but I think "Suzan" needs to learn from you. That mk1 he's got, looks like it been through the wars and just made it. Give a kid some advice, I say.

Keep up a good work.

Cheers lads really appriciate it. Ill be trying to keep it its too much fun.

Needs a few niggly bits I.e throttle spring - connect chock cable small bits but essential as lifting the bonnet everytime it cooled Down to adjust the clutch is annoying

Ill take anyone for a quick blitz if they want haha

If I don't see you Thursday (which I proberbly will) ill see you on the morning of spring fest
