Iain, don't forget that now you have a nice example too, so it will make a great sight along side all the others.

I'm looking forward to hopefully seeing your car when you bring it over, and I'm sure many others on here will be too! Makes it a bit more interesting when you have followed the progress on a project like this!

I have had days like this. No harm in having a well earned break, there's always another night when you will feel more up to it!

Tim.

seeing as i wasnt working tonight thought i would try to drive the mex out of the garage and give her a wash so that the sprayer can sort out any paint chips etc (went against spraying the car complete said he could fix the blemishes ah well hes the profi what do i know )
took a few pics seeing as she was outside ,jobs to do are bleed the brakes ,fit standard height front springs ,t-cut and polish and various wee jobs ,only problem I have is that theres a hell of a noise of the gearbox/clutch depress the clutch and it goes away ,sounds like the release bearing but all that is new and was careful when i put it all together ,any ideas can i over adjust the clutch to cause this be a bugger if i have to take the gearbox back out
