I'd slowed down by then ;D
Well I haven't updated this much what with almost selling her, but as i'm now taking it to France for a historic car rally to Laon (booked n paid for) I spose I should..
Bought two new tyres, went for Goodyears my only regret is that the dunlops look better painted, as I don't fancy painting 'efficient grip' so i'll do the goodyear and tyre size and leave it at that.
The Dunlops were ok grip wise but the Goodyears feel better. (I've never really liked dunlops on any vehicle i've owned) Next is to upgrade the HT leads thinking of going magnecor 8.5's if anyone has tried them.
May do the plugs as well, the car hasn't done a great deal of mileage and am not sure if plugs fail from lack of use but I guess it wouldn't hurt to change em.
And that really is it for now.. no point lowering her further as I won't get my money back when she goes back up for sale (maybe) next year.
will add some more pics of the car when I can..
Oh and I did go to the retro rides gathering but got turned away as i'd taken the spaniel along and didn't realise cars were making runs so the guy on the gate said the dog wasn't allowed in. Was absolutely gutted but understand the safety requirement should she have gone running off.
So that'll be a nother trip for next year too..
Ta Ta for now Nick ;D

You know it was inevitable that the v8 bug would come back. It also means I'll be putting the van up for sale soon too, so if you know anyone who wants a T4 transformer camper..... ;D

Loving the colour choice, now a skyline or early 2.5 single tub supra would be an awesome engine swap when funds allow. :-)

Oh good god what a project I have kittens just thinking about what would happen if mine ever saw rain. Totally understand where you are coming from, I hope it all comes good eventually. Sometimes wish mine wasn't as good as it is so I could go the wide arch, caged trackday route. Your renderings are absolutely gorgeous, stick with it that is definitely the route to go. All the best Nick
