Red 8V Resto Started

[easytrans]

Well done .. Its always nice when you can have a clean looking engine bay .... I rushed my trackday thinking the motor would be out within a few weeks but 3 years + on its not been the case and its looking a little scruffy but then its just a trackday car,

Good to see more progress on this its been a long process and good on ya for sticking with it

Brake pipes turned out well.

wow your'e a glutton for punishment ... I'd have replaced them with copper while I had access then never need touch them again ever but 10/10 for the effort put in

Just watch those few "pits" on a couple of sections as if they can see those or feel them when its all together they will pull you up on MOT for it

Spring is on its way whats the target for this being on the road now?

Hi Pal, yeah I was actually surprised how decent they were. Didn't take me long actually.

Not really got a target mate, its done, when its done. I have a young family with lots of activities which take a lot of time and ????, I work on the car when and can and spend what I can, when I can lol. I really want it done soon though.
