[quote=pushrod;426861]You have quite a list there Dave.
I wouldn't bother with the 40's unless you know someone who can set them up properly. And I mean really properly, otherwise you just get a heavy drinking, unreliable, hard to get out of bed in the morning partner. You will also have to twist the engine or remove the servo to get them to fit in.


yep,if shes running sweet,dont bother ive got 40,s complete pain in the butt,all over the place.but as im getting 45,s they will be for sale soon if you fancy them.

Finally got round to making a start with the Sport.

Removed front grille and 1/4 bumpers...



A good clean behind the grille and bumpers etc and then it was time to paint the grille...



Just as I finished this, the posty arrived.... "Dealer Plates" courtesy of Topaz. Thanks to him, really pleased with them.



Then sorted out the garage, dug out all the bits and parts ive bought over the last few months.

Still need to get Q/R brackets, Cibies, Cibie Covers, Burton Rocker Cover, Cam Cover.

Need to paint Diff (courtesy of Escort-Tec) then its off down to "Dale's" to get the parts fitted as well as the twin 40's I bought some months back.

Still a few things to do, but plenty of time before the lakes.

Sadly im off into work for a weekend of lates, but should be able to carry on on Monday. Enjoyed this today, although very basic to some, im learning from scratch.

Best Wishes

Dave
