	Thanks,glad its liked!! Iv done loads of mods,to much to list really.Cam,head,three branch, bigger carbs,uprated dissy,electric fan,oil cooler etc etc. Iv had to loads to the suspension,I'm using the lever arm shocks as well as telescopics on the front so it's got two shockers per side,three leaf springs on the rear with antiroll bar. Superflex bushes where I can get them to fit!! Nightmare getting tuning parts for the car. Engine is easyer as its the same as a mgb!

	The front valance is from a MK3 Marina but it has had a lot of work to get it smooth and flush with the body. The only small problem is the under-riders which are touching the valance!

	The vinyl roof was supplyed and fitted buy a local company,if you phone around your local upholsterers they should be able to help. If you get stuck with finding the right type pattern of vinyl try www.automobiletrim.com If you get stuck contact me and il give you the phone number of the people who done mine
