Decided the front end is going to look like THIS with the mk1 grile, overriders and sticky numberplate.

Got a couple more pics of the rear. I placed the tailgate up against it to see what it looks like:

Pretty much finished getting rid of all the flakey paint inside. Started on the load floor now. Isn't too bad atall, just needs the flakeyness taken off and the have it all prepped properly before paint. Going to my brother's on Thursday for prep and paint! Can't wait to get it back and start putting it back together again!


Ok, here's my engine to go in it. Will be paired wit a nice set of HS4 twin SUs >_<

Was told it was the only on in the world when I bought it, I know of 1 or 2 more, but never seen one with the ribs in the top like this one :)

And here's the custom dial I'm making. Will have digital readout of speed and revs, going to keep the mechanical fuel guage undereath. Want to try and make it as subtle as possible, hence why it'll be mounted in the old speedo. Not putting a full dash in, just the black centre surround with the 2 smaller dials either side.
