    The rear ends looking a lot better after two coats of 121 two pack paint .
    have some new brake lines to go in with a goodridge kit yet, the ones on are just to keep the crap out ,
    hand brake rod still to fit an paint underside of diff were the jack was.
    Dampers felt fine so gave them a good clean new top rubbers and superflex at the bottom
    and new u bolts and nuts.
    must have taken on and off almost a year to clean the underseal off to get to paint









    started to clean up the engine bay which had loads of underseal painted round it which is a good thing and was my birthday last week so some new bling adjustable tca rod ends and forged group 4 coupling, to go on at some point.

                The harness goes through the fire wall but then through the floor with a plates on the underside of the car with a welded nut on . Car was used for clubman rallying a while back now , so seats have been sold off and will probably get new belts as well .Sprint class I have no i idea ? My back ground is Circuit racing only , I will just be happy to get it out for a play to start with , then see how it goes from there on . Just need to finish a motorbike carb rebuild then clean out the garage to make so room
