Did the feds jump on you from behind a bush for having no front number plate? :'(
No, plates normally in the window. Taken out at shows...

Does look good, but I can't understand why you've put larger wing mirrors on it; fairly sure you're faster than most things behind you now!
Thank you Sir, at the time i just wanted something different, liked the idea of them being elec too. I do fancy Nova stubby ones, but so many peep have them now...

Can't believe it's been so long since i updated this... But i've just been driving and enjoying the car really...
But there is a few things i've been doing. Picked up a spare rack, as mine is ok but because i polished it what 3 years ago it's just looking a meh..
Start the strip down.
Dont forget the bloody circlip! As i did, beat my mole grips in trying to get it out...
When the track rod ends are so tight/rusted they wont come off, you take strong measures...
Stripped.
Big thanks to Olly (trackdaynova) for his "how too" strip these, cause i wouldn't of known where to start...
Hhhmm casing marks and such...
Couldn't have them there.... Spoil the finish.
Gave it a clean with a wire wheel.
Also got another sump ready for a bit of love too.

Cars looking great as always Benn. I remember you having problems with your c.v joint a little while back, is it all sorted now? I think it's great how your still improving the car after all these years. How did you remove the slats from the grille?
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming, “DAMN, what a ride!!”
Cheers Ben,
Seem of been ok since i did it. I had the Circlip groove recut to make the shaft longer so the joint knuckle can move more...
There are still bits i'm unhappy with, which is way i do it. Some things i can just pick holes in... car's are one of them. More so my own.... Hate things not being right!
The slates/back part of the grille are only plastic welded/heated in. So you just warm up the welds and they pop apart...
