Simon, on the electrics, if your car cut out but then bump started Ok, why do you think it's the electrics? Could be fueling problem especially as the motor has been out and the fuel lines disturbed

well i dont but look at my wiring and you will understand why i am doing it i will take pictures of before and after i want to keep this car for a long time so every job that i do or gets done on this car is going to be done properly so im not going to just replace a couple of wires they are all going to be done im not going to just patch up the body work it will all be done [in segments] etc etc

well i havent posted much on this but im just having fun now

even though i havent got much space in the garage anymore


i have managed to paint my engine i know people said i should have done this to start with but i did like it black but just fancied a change and will proberly change it again soon lol

got to clean up a few spills etc i got on piping and covers etc but other than that its come out good


i have got about 5 boxes of wiring etc for the car ready to go in sat on te back seat and i have new window motors to go in plus cb radio new horn and new speakers and wiring etc for them

me and a freind are going to be putting the carpet put back in once the weather is half decent again

Looks good to me Si but then again, I am colour blind
