I love this car..... and its a bloody good job, because it would seem this really is the gift that keeps on giving! I got her back, tucked her into the garage and started fitting the carpet. to do this you need to remove various trims etc, including the kick panels. When i removed said...

End of the month i thought it would be back huh....! I guess a little update is in order. The reassembly didn't quite go to plan, car ran great for 10mins, then the noise was back. Stripped again and rechecked, back together, still there. and so on and so forth for a while. Eventually it...

Minor updates.... Seats ready to go back in And door card surgery has begun... these were obviously the wrong colour, and are also damaged. First task is to change the colour - carpet off and masked trim: Coat 1: 5 coats later: Leaving them to cure, hopefully all is good and I end...

Not a perfect job by a long shot, but it's made a 20+ year old Ally manifold look 1000x better. Really looking forward to having the engine all back together and looking more presentable than it did before!

ok so a couple of updates in one to come here.... I really liked the black on the valve covers and air cleaner, so much so that I stumped up for these : Promptly fitted them, chucked in new plugs, new leads, and threw on the new Holley and all was good! Except when I fired it back up it had...

You aren't wrong, as the next update will attest........ :mad:

No major update to be had here - Not really had any time to do much, so mainly just been spending money ( mostly on things i don't really need right now...) :lol: Found that the Bonnet scoop was barely held on and was missing most of its a fastenings, so did a quick repair with some Marine...

So, first things first - the car - Originally born a Grande Coupe with Silver Jade paint and a white vinyl roof and beige interior. Someone in the last 4 years decided to strip her down and paint her in BMW Laguna Seca blue. Wouldn't be so bad, except it really isn't a great paint job. She is...

So looks like I lucked out here.... just been down to see the car and the engine does indeed have some mods - Holley carb - 600cfm I think Edelbrock performer intake Mild cam (unknown as yet) Msd electronic ignition Msd distributor Ally radiator Exhaust system (unknown as yet) Project wise...

I have absolutely no idea just yet pal! need to get it in the garage and have a prod about!

Literally won this on ebay an hour ago, haven't even arranged collection yet, but here's my new toy! 1969 Mustang coupe, 351ci

not boring anymore.......

Hey Wizzer, Sensible/Boring cars have been my life for a little while now, and i have to admit i kinda like things not needing fixing every 5 mins..... tesla is only a model 3 SR+, but even being the baby of the family its pretty damn impressive. Ill always be a petrolhead, but Electric...

Wow... been a while yet again! I wonder if this place is still active as it once was? facebook seems to be killing off forums over the last few years eh! Well, the S4..... Cost me a fortune (full engine strip down, new crankcase breather system, new supercharger coolant cores, new clutch, etc...

Ordered some light smoke tint film for the lights front and rear, yellow for the fogs, red caliper paint and new caliper decals, and going to debadge it. Then I need to transfer my private plate and fab a small plate mount to go down low on grille between the parking sensors. That should keep...
