Small update but no pics.
Had the rear spring seat welded on Saturday before the spring went through the chassis leg. Couple more bits need welding, will be done in a couple of weeks.

Spent today removing the best bit of a Cavalier turbo ready to go in this in a couple of weeks, Cav now ready for the big scrapyard in the sky.

Got some lowered tie bar mounts to fit as well as the gearbox keeps catching the tie bar plus they will also help with putting the power down.

Mate found some headlamp protectors in his garage from when he had a Nova so they got chucked on too.

Small update, no longer fitting the LET to this car as some kind person has keyed it all down the side so lost a bit of interest in it. Have fitted the new exhaust system I had to replace the horrible one it came with though.

Just e-mailed Practical Performance Car about entering the ?999 challenge at York Dragway in June so hopefully this shed will be making an appearance and not embarrassing itself too much.

Does look tidy, nice motor Lee. Altho i know you've had quite a few issues with it recently

Fpmsl at welded on cv's, who the fook did that?

yay, i used to love this car, got the 2.0 8v fitted cheap though, we did buy the driveshafts to fit it but they turned out to be the wrong ones, so the guy welded them in as a temporary fix, but never got around to replacing them as the car got sold.

the guy that welded them has now done pwhacks v6 engine conversion

looks really nice now lee, i loved the wheels, would get a set if i could afford to put a new set of tyres on them. looks nice with the gsi front bumper an dthe vinyl removed. if you want the original back windows (with k565 ubu etched in) i can get them if you want, something about having the original windows i like.
