Shiny bits are always good.
 
Hi thanks Darren for posting the pics have fitted new fuel pump and sorted the fuel return pipe out which was folded back on its self as shown in the last pic car starts a lot quicker now and also replaced gear box sump with new shine one as the old one leaked thanks to having a screw in it ( someone's cheap idear to drain the oil out more than likely done in the states) lol so car runs slot better and I've got one less leak lol
 
Glad she's coming along well. It's amazing how people bodge stuff lol.
 
I no wot you mean lol having restored a number of cars it's unbelievable wot lenths some people go to to badly repair or fix stuff and on more than once it would have been cheaper to get the correct part!! :D
 
Hi all well cars done all it's shows for this year so is now park up in the garage currently with no back axle or springs as the back ends being refurb pics to follow I have also orded alias of goodies from the states including rebuild stuff for the back end but also new cam and lifters and valve springs should breath new life into the old girl lol

Thanks daz as you can see the back end needs a bit of tlc. Only one shock was working the other had blown a seal!! Still passed two mots lol
 
Great to see the progress. What are you planning to do with the rear end? clean up and hammerite it?
