    Carbs has been rejetted. And a few new bits has been bought.

    A new rotor was definitely needed...


    Tomorrow my new ignition coil should arrive. Fingers crossed! My battery is charging now and hopefully everything is ready now. I've changed all the fuses and new coolant is going in now. Tomorrow will tell if my wiring skills are better than expected... Excited!!!!

    It's alive!!!
    First try! It's only the stock manifold. No exhaust...
    I didn't expect it to turn over so easily but it did! I'm one happy camper! Celebrating with wine and steaks now.
    Next step is tuning it and getting the wire mess sorted.

    The Danish mk1



    I had an accident today... Bought new wheels. New wheels was probably the last thing I needed. But 360 aud for a never used set...

    Et28 is massive! No wonder they look like they won't fit
