that would explain it i work in hadleigh, it is usually work collegues say they had seen me...

 

sorry but the wheels are going nowhere, ill know where to to look if they do LOL

 

they do have their problems any way i have to run it quite a bit higher than in the pics on the back to stop it hitting the arch on big bumps in the road.

 

i need to get my arches rolled still but would advise doing before fitting wheels as it quickly knackers tyres

 

not seen the black one or any others really :(

 

will keep a look out for ya :salute:

Some more little updates on the work done so far....

 

Had a few start up issues, where the car would fire up fine then idle at about 500 revs and not on all cylinders then after about 20 secs it would run on all cylinders and drive fine etc....so i narrowed this down to the dizzy and rotor arm. Took the old dizzy off and it was pretty much black inside lots of carbon deposits etc and also the rotor arm looked knackered! So replaced these and so far it seems to have done the trick...success some pics of the engine and dizzy lol just because i have none on this thread of them haha

On the next pic, you see the clip on the top of the dizzy well i managed to snap the end of the bottom one off :/ it still holds it on alrite but not sure how to fix it properly, not a problem atm as it works fine but just a niggle that id like to get sorted, any ideas?

Also managed to do the lupo wiper conversion, i never really thought it would make as big a difference as everyone says but BLOODY HELL IT DOES!! they look pretty trick too :)
