This my old bus, Bought totally standard in feb and now looking a tad better.... No major plans for the car at the moment other than clear indicators and smoothing/tinting the rear lights red. Other than that I'm pretty pleased with how it looks now. How it was....

Yeah its a GT II. I don't know what it is about 'rocco's but they always seem to be really good bodily. This is my second one and the first one was even better than this one!
White is a good colour for the 'rocco too, imo.

I'm keeping my eye's open for a decent webber carb, it's got the standard pierburg on it just now and it plays up from time to time. Apart from that, just tidying really, I want to hide as much of the loom etc as possible because it's really clean under the bonnet.

It's down about 50 mm, I'd like the front to sit a bit lower but I havn't really driven it much since i fitted the springs so they may still settle
