  1. It lives! The engine sat for 8 years after I imported it from the UK. I decided to get the rope seals replaced on the crank so dropped it off to Taylor Automotive who stripped it down and replaced all the seals and gaskets plus put in a duplex adjustable cam gear to get the cam timing spot on. The head was ok but I decided to replace the valves and guides. Got the engine in and it fired up on about the 3rd turn. Let it run for about 20 min to break in the cam. Next job is to fit the exhaust and then all the mechanical is 100% complete
  2. This is still sitting in storage and I have done nothing with it since the last post. Just about finished the 2 Door GT so this will be next on the list
  3. Back brakes done
  4. Front end pretty much back together
  5. Converted the original tacho internals to electronic
  6. More progress
  7. New loom. Couple of mistakes in it but supplier is sending a couple of patches. The old loom had been butchered and had a meltdown on the underdash loom on the high beam light circuit so just decided safer to go new
  8. Been getting stuck in to get it finished.Got all the wiring hooked up and lights are all working. Going with LED bulbs to reduce the current on the loom. Rebuilt the wiper motor
