More updates soon once some parts arrive!
So clean mate! I love that bonnet, heck I even love that garage
 
Great looking car - could I ask did you buy the seats or get them retrimmed ? I'm trying to refurb my interior at the moment and struggling to find some good seats and mats !

Just bought them, not in the best nick. Few marks and a big cigarette burn on the passenger seat but only paid 400 for them with rails and they're alright. I'm missing the oem drivers mat as I bought the carpet, door cards and rear side plastics and mats cheap but think I'll struggle to find one. Have a random red fitted mat for the drivers side so itll do for now!
 
Not very exciting but starting to run out of things to do while I wait for parts to arrive and wait on my mate tig welding my decat pipe. But painted the wiper arms today, no before pics but they were very much showing their age.

Not much in the way of progress while I wait for parts and payday to order some more stuff. Cant really chance driving the car just now as it has no MOT or road tax... or insurance for that matter but that'll get sorted soon. Just a case of waiting for my work to open back up before I can MOT it. A set of genuine tail light seals did turn up so removed the lights and spent a few hours cleaning.

Very much needed as it was disgusting behind the rear lights. Wasnt changing them due to any leaks but just a bit of preventative maintenance really. Hopefully some more interesting updates soon!

Nice little addition to the engine bay today and something I've wanted for ages! A set of mint condition Spoon Sports HT leads courtesy of @danbo2002, thanks again dude and was great meeting you.

Really makes the bay look a whole lot better compared to the **** looking old red Magnacore leads that were on it previously. Still waiting on a few bits to arrive so will update when they do, just small stuff!

Very nice.

Noticed you have a breather on the back of the cam cover, is there any benefit of removing the pipe/line that goes back into the intake side and fitting one?
