A couple more pics

After owning this car for 4 years, things have certainly moved on in the last few months. Firstly, just before lock down, I went up and collected my interior from Si (this is now sat in my front room all covered up waiting to be fitted. Still have some wiring bits to finish off first. I then decided I could not put such a lovely interior into a car that needed so much TLC, so pulled the trigger and had it resprayed. The colour choice was long and exhausting, going from all the solid greys that are so in at the moment, to a Porsche chalk and even avalanche grey. I have watched here and see

Can’t wait mate tbh. It has been such a long time with it sat on the drive and getting wet and grimy. I think I have washed it more times than the number of miles I have driven in the last two years with her. But I am building a garage so when she is back from paint she will be under cover. will need MOT and exhaust sorting (as I don’t want the large bore exit anymore, a more refined quad exit is required) then a trip to Jimmer for a health check before she is allowed on the open road. Happy but expensive times. ?

Hi gents, another question, has anyone fitted a digital coolant temp gauge? if so which one and from where? Does it require a new temp sensor fitted to the bypass pipes? can you fit one where the existing temp gauge is? look forward to your replies

Hi guys, I am going to install an ai606 Toad alarm with tilt sensor and I was wondering if any of you might have a wiring diagram, or know which wires I need to splice into to create the immobiliser circuits. all advise welcome cheers ???

Another update. As most of you follow Mondo on his Facebook page and are following this forum sites Facebook page, you will have seen the pics he has posted showing that my interior has now been fully completed. Going to pick it all up next weekend can’t wait to see it all in it’s leather glory. It won’t go in straight away as I have decided to redo a load of wiring fit a car alarm oh and get the car resprayed, better to get it all done before interior goes in. I will post pics when the car is all back together. Then after four years of no stereo and two years of it being off the

As I am going to have the car resprayed soon I am Interested to know what seals/rubbers etc that are needed when refitting / replacing windscreen and rear tailgate glass and where the best place to get them all from? thank you in advance

Well the time has come at last and the interior is now removed from the car and all wrapped up ready to go to Mondo for the full re trim including the roof lining and sun shades ( the last bit is news to Si hope he dosen’t mind haha whoops) Can’t wait to see it all done, it has been a long time coming but I know the end result will be worth it. With the interior being done I will hopefully doing sound proofing and swapping the auto for a manual. So going to be a busy few weeks.

Dude u really are having some luck with her. At least you have confirmed a knackered starter and a direction to fix her. Don’t give up heart you have such an amazing looking car and I for one can’t wait to see it in person. Hopefully at the NEC but I understand if she can’t make it best to finish off with the quality u started with and end up with the car u intended Good luck mate

I like clear side indicators and the crystal corner indicators and the 99 spec rear lights, but this time i tend to agree that the orange back lights go with the orange side repeaters.

Nice looking car well done. Just up the road from me as well :thumbup:

Wow what a build You have certainly had your struggles and all credit to you for sticking with it and following your dream,there are a a lot of people who at numerous stages of your creation would have happily thrown in the towel and walked away. That is going to be one very nice car. I think even nicer as its not in a regular color. good work sir :thumbup1::thumbup1:
