The black bit, i.e. the roof. I will get a close up of the finish - it's kinda metal flakey/glittery.

i'd usually say black wheels were the coolest look on most cars, but in my humble opinion i'd deffo say that in this case the silver rims look pretty boss

street - i'm liking the cloth tbh. Besides there is a new steering rack that needs buying, mot doing and if there's nowt left some bigger wheels and a turbo engine. Interior is waaaaay down the list.

Turbo lump would be rad. Better start the wiring for engine management gubbins - if you're as baffled by miles of red, blue, brown and white cables as I am, you might have it down by RR08!
What are the bushes, driveshafts and tyres like?
And what wheels are you going for?

Pondering some 15" steels with lo-pro's. The driveshafts look alright (had it up on the lift today) but the steering rack has a fair old wobble on it on the nearside. That's a deffo MOT fail so need to sort one out sharpish. Thankfully the tax is a couple of months longer than the MOT, phew.
Not sure of bushes, but i want to polyurethane them anyway - if i have a bad ride i might as well have it proper bad but tighten up the steering is my thunking.

Hmmmm just a tiny update - found out (through the staff cars bit in PC) that the ovlov is a 2.3! Joy! It means that i can use one of the cheapy 2.3 turbo manifolds on ebay. All I need now is to wait till the 27th when i get a nice phat double-month paycheque through.
