Tom Posted May 7, 2008 Report Posted May 7, 2008 Well its been 5 months. . . yes really of me being skint and now she's back on the road. I took the interior out to get some new seats and make it more comfy rather than 'race car' and things spiralled a bit. I noticed the calipers leaking, the floor was a bit rusty etc etc but at 22.30 last night she became road legal (ish) once again now a few pics hmmm cosy! Still wanna get some standard seatbelts, full cage, get rid of those switches in the dash and get a carpet made that'll fit over the tunnel plus sort some knocks and rattles that i'm not quite of the cause yet
Tom Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Posted May 7, 2008 cheers bud oh and i even managed to fit my RBTM's that i bought at CF show last year!
antz Posted May 7, 2008 Report Posted May 7, 2008 i really like your car. low, clean lines and looks comfy
Tom Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Posted May 7, 2008 Antz - cheers mate you can blame Phil for those perfect lines and my garage - spend more time in there than i do in my house
Admin Vista Posted May 7, 2008 Admin Report Posted May 7, 2008 oh and i even managed to fit my RBTM's that i bought at CF show last year! I bought one of them split fire king lead things at Ford fair a couple of years ago, what a waste of money that was. Anyone else ever tried one?

Tom Posted May 7, 2008 Author Report Posted May 7, 2008 Yeah they're shit along with the split fire plugs - good demo though Anyone recognise my seats? been told they're old opel ones, they were grey on the back but i recoloured the leather. took me ages to get them where i wanted them and make up all the brackets, and my knees are still up round the wheel

A word of advice, always carry a standard lead around with you just in case.
