Well guys, after the descussion we had on another thread regarding my roof, I went up to the car again the other day and had a real good look at it.
Day light. False light. What ever.
If I cut out the FLAT panels that have been welded into the roof, then the roof shape can be regained, giving me more than half a chance to rectify the the bodge thats been done.

Have a nice weekend y'all

Christ, who welded that? Stevie wonder?

Get it welded properly then fill it to get the shape back.

Well, regarding the above last few threads, I've decided to buy another roof.

Purchased one and collected from Six-Pack Speed Shop at the Nats at the weekend (Thankyou Pascal).

Another job added to my looooong list.

Have been tinkering with the dash lately, so here's a few pics.

Also been adding the new front discs too

And the new poly bushes...

Brake booster....

Master cylinder.....

Shocks.......

You only live once, and with B Body brakes, I want to live abit longer

Also got some more panels coming from Neil too (yes more.......)
We'll get there in the end.

Lookin good Jules , after ovehauling the dash on the pit , had to take it out again @ least five times.

Worse bit on the rebuild.

If you have to take it out only four times , your a better person than me.

Good luck.

Still got a few bits to do during the week before that can happen, but only small jobs though.

What brakes are you using?

Jules · Post by **Jules** » Sat Aug 04, 07 4:20 pm

Just one of those "Complete" disc brake conversions you get from the states mate.

Everything included.
Master Cylinder, Servo, Vented Rotors, Loaded Calipers, Bearings, Spindles, Hoses, the works.
Everything you need.
£570 here. (4-6 weeks shipping).

You have to use your original lower ball joints / bolts, and I had to re-use the washer that goes between the castle nut and small outer bearing for rotors.

.......You're not on drums still are you?
