Just making a new column cover and the dash is ready to go back in. Managed to find some black plated Dzus fasteners for it which look better than the usual gold or silver for this application.

We have brakes. Bled them all today, nothing leaked and a nice firm pedal. didn't even kick over the brake fluid which is one of my favorite tricks! Decided to celebrate by firing the ol' girl up for the first time this year half expecting it to be running rough or something but it's still spot on. Think I better nip out and stick a tenner on the lottery......

did you lighten the shoes, a couple of holes wont hurt, maybe helically groove the shoe linings for reduced weight

just had a silly thought, billet ali drums would save a lot of weight and not impossible to do.

"Those" brakes are for the next axle Trev, bit of a side project I've got going on. Billet drums sound interesting, have to give them some thought. The other bits you did worked out well and are on.

Ooh, get you with your new plastic nose and your funny headlights!

Well, today didn't exactly go to plan. Windscreen fitter let me down, the indicator module packed up and the normally bulletproof Denso alternater decided to give up the ghost as well :roll: this car is starting to fight back....

The lights remind me of Jems Belv. Loved that car :(
Looks cool Blue. :thumbright:

Are the lights legal like that ? And how is the blue tint achieved ?
