Front suspension and brakes going in - should improve a bit with the Swaybar and Bilsteins .

Shame I had to modify the headers after I had them ceramic coated ?? :angryfire: :angryfire: Lesson learnt

Using the mini starter is a treat with plenty of room to remove with headers in place (not like the big blocks)

After a dislocated shoulder early last year progress slowed right down (still not right :( ) so just did the light stuff !!

Re-furbed the wiper motor and linkages :-

Powder coated, new seals & springs .

I called in to Kev's garage in the week, this car is going to be fantastic when it's done, the pics don't do it justice, hopefully it will be done for American Speedfes. :thumbright: :thumbright: :thumbright:

Crackin' job you're doing there. '71 grille the best of all and the price not too bad by today's standards, looks like they made great job of it. Love the blue motor too.
