Time to dig this thread out again.
The braided throttle cable and highly recomended Lokar kickdown cable are now in place along with the new tubular upper control arms and new front shocks.Dont think it shows in the pix but you wanna see the size of my bump stops!!!!
Edit--they do show up,they`re HUGE..
New rear shox,new tow bar, new stereo and new trans dip stick to go and we are back on the road.Oh and remote central locking kit to fit(christmas pressie)
Be nice to see my car in the members car show again.
P.S. I won best 70`s car at the American Auto clubs Autumn nationals

Due to the amount of E mails and PM`s I have had since Billing I am just bumping this thread up to the top so people can see the build up for them selves,without me boring all the older members to death.
Only up-date is that I have just come in from the garage having fitted a new set of rockers and push rods due to failiure at Billing a few weeks ago.

.Had a 11.45 PM start up

and all seems well but will have a better go tomorra.
Also just noticed the Holley in the last pic,have now got a brand spanking Edelbrock 600 on there,to give me the whole performer package,apart from the heads
