    Oh thanks mate! Wheels are 14x7 and 14x8 0 offset tyres are just 195/45/14 I reckon it could do with a spacer on the front it would fill the guard out spot on then

    Couple pics of the powerhouse,amazing reliability really goes hard for what it is? Filled the sump right up with fuel the other day,going to pull the carbs down and rekit think the front float must be sticking open sometimes Changed the oil and filter let it run on the hoist got up to temp then repeat Shifted leads 1 to 4 round sending compression up through the carbs Worked a treat! Must of had a blocked jet somewhere idles way smoother starts a bit better and for now floats not wide open Still try to sort some carb kits just not as urgently as I first thought

    Managed to find another rhf park light from Australia Also new headlight bracketry and an st grille badge thanks to @sleeektoy Took a fair bit of persuasion to align front bumper and indicator brackets Then reassembled front Looks far better than the stacked up state it was in before

    Haha thanks man If I do ever paint it yeah I'd keep this color I can't see me painting it soon it's ratty and to be fair perfect how it is Every panel has defects and sort of its own story to tell A lot of people don't like how rough it is its funny driving it up town people yell "it'll look cool when it's finished " I chortle and don't tell them that it pretty much is finished
