    and this is the reason the gsi smoked abit when i took the head of, was praying it wasnt the rings, and to my delight it wasnt , thanks to steve milton for all the parts, (new headgasket, bolts ,inlet and exhaust gasket and 16 valve stems), and that was a boring job to change , and also cheers to paul for the help on putting it back together

    think they are a bit shagged.....

    then, had a good old look around the car, wacked it on axel stands to check under the car for rot and was very happy, thought id share the pictures of how it looks..


















    well after the clean up, took the wheels of, and are ready painting, (yes, pink!!!)



    and for all the fans of a good old bodge job..........



    and last but not least, this is the bit of door rust thats going to be done soon, along with dent on the rear arch, tyres are stripped of, and will get painted very soon!! hope you enjoy......




    and this is how shes sitting at the moment, more update soon...

    Shells looking very clean mr maris
    Wheels will look quality pink, you painting them the same pink as paul had on his turbo nova?
    Please colour co-ordinate it with pink bumper strips, pink cage, and a pink 'powered by fairydust' sticker on the back
