Looking good you big hunk of spunk. Your Gt that is!

Only the battery box how good is that.
they didnt say anything about the length of the wires that holf the clips for the bonnet. I got pinned for it once as they catch an arm. Specialy at crossings.

Do you have a battery switch under your bonnet as you have the label under your window.

Excellent job

and yes, i have a battery switch, but its inside the car, in the dash. ill get pics tomorrow. for race meets, ill take out one of the washer jets and have a cable going from there to the battery switch, so its like an external one aswell!

It was good, because before I took her over the pits, I took her for a long drive to suss out all the bad bits, and fix them, like i had a light problem, no wipers, lost all gears but 4th... the linkage broke going up the mountain! and yeah, but it will be my daily driver, so once the 1275 is in, it should be more reliable. i got the current motor thats in it out of a bush bashed mini clubman for $50!

hehehe.

cheers guys
