Nice one :) When do you hope to have it done for ?
Did want it done for Billing, no chance of that now, still waiting for some parts.
End of July I reckon, IMO there's no point rushing it then having to re do things, I'll take my time and do it right.
Really really looking forward to driving it tho, got a full 6 days to work on it now so will hopefully get loads done.
Nice one, hopefully see many progress pictures then ? :)

Going to change the cyl heads over?
Yes for sure, been looking into gasket sets today, found a genuine gasket and bolts. I'll order them up tomorrow.

Nice Avatar! ;) lol
Update time finally, lol
Done quite a bit since the last update, mainly fighting with the headlining for about a day, NEVER EVER will I fit another, complete pain to do, but happy with it now.
Fitted my front heated screen for the group buy, used the correct sealer as well.

Fitted new gray rear bumper and bumper bar, not the correct one for a Sport i know but there's NO chance of me getting a new one of those.
Built up some of the tailgate, bronze tinted glass fitted with new seal.
Fitted brand new rear lights, one being a twin fog euro cluster.
Fitted a brand new early SR spoiler, and pressed metal number plate that I got off Rich.

Inside as said headlining is in seat belts fitted, rear quarter cards and half of the rear seat also fitted, can't fit the lower half of the seat untill i fit the tank as I'm using a internal pump I need to access the top of the tank.
Handbrake lever is in as are the plastic seat runners.

In the engine bay I have fitted a new steering rack with new bushes, would of liked new GM ones that are black but they are NLS, so the flo-flex ones will do.

Rack fitted, not got any track rod ends fitted yet so still have the broom handle in there as well lol. Also fitted a refurbed brake servo base and alternator bracket.

Also fitted a new oil pressure gauge sender,

Other things I have done are fit the early gray B pillar vinyl, fit 4 branch manifold and spray the rear window surrounds, I used U-Pol mid gray and its too dark so i will re do them with U-Pol Light gray.
Also been sorting out the gear stick unit, cleaned it up and spray the rod with etch primer and silver Hammerite smooth paint, and fitted a brand new Sr/Gte gear stick, gaitor and nob combo I got a little while back.

Built it back up but not had time to fit it yet.

I have encountered a few problems on the way tho, first being how to fit the seat belts with the cage as in the pic below, maybe need to chop and weld the bar somehow ?

Second being the wiring for the oil pressure sender, got three wires that go down there think one is for the alternator, or 2 ? or is there 2 that go to the oil pressure sender ? And all three have different plugs than the sender?
Help needed me thinks.
