So the next update!!

Gave it a good old wash with multiple snow foams, 2BM and a machine polish. Unfortunately the weather has been a bit dodgy lately so havent been able to do all the cleaning I wanted



Finally got my strip back on (lets see how long this one lasts!!!)



As i had some vinyl left over, a very kind mate of mine was able to wrap me some more bits......





Livens up the interior a bit!!

And also got these on...





As you can see it needs lowering a tad....



I also managed to pick this up off ebay:




And thats it!! Its all nice and clean for tomorrow at the show at Tatton!

Joe.

Pretty easy to be honest! Just need to bend the rear clips a little and pull from the front!

I got the vinyl sheet off ebay! A mate of mine did it and he split it into 3 sections. The 2 sides and the long centre part. Lay it on and use a heat gun to warm it up a bit and just cut it to fit! Its been on 2 weeks now and its still going strong even in the torrential rain we have been having! We also lacquered it to protect it even more!

So got another update for you all! An autoelectrician friend told us about an Ed30 in a scrapyard, so my brother went down to look early last week and there were some useful bits on it. The front end, rear lights and rear spoiler had already gone (damn it) but we did get some useful parts for pretty cheap!!

The new bits include....



The top vent!!



Much nicer peddles im sure you will agree

And my favourite part, black headliner with complete A, B and C pillars, grab handles, visors, rear view mirrors and lights!!





Future plans are to save some cash back up  :signLOL: then want some lowering springs, fit the highline and MFSW and then ? Im sure il think of something!!  :driver:

What do you think?
