I think I recall your interior needing a load of work? so I guess good spares are handy, or you planning to replace yours?

Interior on the Donor car is Avacado which is nice but it would never sit right with the Silver so I am just mixing and matching all the best bits ;)

I have also got a better Dash shell now in Tan though this Avacado dash may be better? I had to plastic weld the original and although the Results were Amazing it was never 100%

There's a product you can get called Sem Colour Cote which is correctly match dye that becomes one with the plastic or Vinyl only thing is you cant buy it in the UK and the suppliers wont ship to UK (Hazardous Material) however my importer who brought the car here does parts containers so it looks like I am bringing some in that way ;)

Missed the last one next isn't until mid May to get here until June but at the Mo non of us are going anywhere anyhow..................... :roll:

Oooooo I did think about one of those sniper kits for the Thunderturd but ended up with an Edelbrook in the end as it was a lot cheaper and I just wanted rid of the car by then.

To be honest mine is going to get a lot more expensive :?

I got mine from the states at a saving of £350 cheaper and that was even after shipping and duties. But I have had a slight change of heart because its a master kit with all the bits a supplied external pump and 20 ft of ethanol proof rubber fuel line which i hear has the noisiest pump on the planet so instead i'm having my old hard fuel line replaced front to back in Cupro Nickel on the drivers side and a mirror image line on the passengers side for return ;) and getting a sniper in tank pump.
In tank pump and hard lines will will make for quiet prime and run
I've come this far might as well do it properly

I may go for multi spark dizzy later?

I've decided to do Resto Mod route now it'll look authentic but i was sick of heat soak and fuel peculation i just want to get in and for it to start and run first time every time
