Hi all, bit more of an update, I've taken the engine to the machine shop, they are going to see what needs doing & let me know next week so I can order up some parts for it.
Tried to undo fuel tank union which had been rounded off & it broke up so somehow I've got to sort that out..
Also made a start stripping down the heater unit, paint stripped it & its now having a soak in my de-rusting tank..
Sump bare metalled & etch primed..
Lotus steels I got sandblasted & I painted a while ago, got a new set of tyres fitted to them today & put them on the car,
Its still sitting a bit high but I'm hoping the suspension will settle a bit over time especially when bits are fitted back on, if not I may have to lower it a bit
thats it for now,
cheers, Stu.

The reversing lamps I'm
putting back as they've been on the car many years, I've put cibie iode halogen headlamps on as they're better than sealed beams & will also fit an alternator instead of the original dynamo so it will cope with the halogens a bit better. Will also fit a set of door mirrors.
The steering wheel I've got on it is temporary, the original I've sent away for the leather to be re-done
cheers, Stu.
