Was great fun yesterday, with the engine bay scrubbing being the highlight for rewarding work. I never knew the exhaust tunnel on a mk1 was shiny!

cant wait to get it to make some noise!!!

things left to do
-radiator and hoses (expansion tank style)
-intercooler and air tubing
-electrics (upgrade earth strap, glow plug relay wiring, alternator and sensors etc).
-drain fuel tank (get rid of that annoying petrol!)
-pump timing and advance to get it to run!!
-exhaust...
-fix the brakes
-give it an interior!

looooong list of untold gremlins/problems/issues etc...

soon.. we are hoping to have it done for the nats..
