    the vast parts collection has started and i suspect a lot more to come...

    a new nob and front seat runners...



    a very dirty but not worn passenger seat to transfer the covers and foam over to the worn drivers seat...



    and another rear bench as theres a mark on the original one...

    i arrived back home at the start of my last break to see a few parts that hard turned up in the mail...



    unfortunately i had ordered the wrong rotor arm, i'm having a nightmare with this car as i have checked part numbers for year etc and the wrong parts still show up...



    at least the air filter was a fit...



    and i think the new plugs will be an improvement too...



    decided to flush the engine and drop the old sludge out, it was as black as the ace of spades...



    the fuel filter didn't fit as it came with barbed outlet / inlet instead of the bolted connection that i need...



    i got the irrits with the motor and moved on to the interior for a while...



    after...



    then gave the gear shaft some love...



    after...



    and fitted some new rubbers...



    after...
