Glad the bumpers have been changed from how they started Andy, although I think I prefer the original lights, again changed I think before you came to the car.
This car certainly has caught your attention, normally in the time you have owned this one, you would be considering buying your third car!

yeah your right Mark. no idea why I like it so much I guess because its so fast and easy to mess about with keeps me entertained, gets me out of the way of the DIY to. I will take you out once the get the box sorted. This car certainly has caught your attention, normally in the time you have owned this one, you would be considering buying your third car!

oops.
Anything special planned during the rebuild?
well I am being a bit slack as I have had the car back since Friday. the guys a stealth racing built me a re-con box with a Quaife diff.Anything special planned during the rebuild?
I had a local garage swap the box over, it was going to be difficult on axle stands as the sub frame needed to be dropped.
however what a difference the diff has made, it handled great before but now its got so much grip. easily the best handling FWD car I have driven now.

Cheers guy's
yeah the I cant believe the difference the diff's made, I new they were good but not in my wildest dreams did I think it would be this good.
while the box was being swapped I even said to myself I bet its not all its cracked up to be. as people do tend to get carried away describing upgrades.

Alright time for an update of the last 6 months..
I have done quite a bit of messing. so the interior was bugging me with is tacky 90s boy racer theme.
so the lush blue seat or out, and in with a set of proper buckets.
also the blue door cards had to go.
for a set of some original trim's, note the bath tap infill's .
the sub was mounted in a box that was just strapped down, used to fly around. and the amp was mounted on a loose board. so I build them in, although my upholstering skills are crap.
I was going to have the cage powder coated anthracite. however when I removed it I found it was damaging the car. I always knew it was a show cage, just dead weight. so I removed it now. and just have the strut brace powder coated, although they got the colour wrong.
and some extra pictures
sorry they are all phone pictures my other camera was at work.
