Matt, I'm planning on making carbon fibre door cards out of the original ones, probably some time over the summer. Not sure if I will or just leave them as is. We'll see. . .
Mark, the gearknob I made myself, turned it on a lathe. Glad you like it!!

Today I managed to get the headgasket locating pins I made, to fit. I first made them a little too wide for the thread in the block, and too wide at the top so I wouldn't be able to get the head over them. They fit well now. Fitted the fuel tank, and removed the old overflow tank, leaving a gurt big hole to blank off! Planning what lines and adaptors I need to plumb in the pump and filter, as well as the lines.



It looks small, but is 40 litres.

Also managed to cut holes through the front panel to fit the larger later type rad and fans. I flipped the blades over on he fans as well to improve airflow when they're spinning. While I was at it I measured up how long the new rad hoses and pipes should be, and where they go.
Managed to find a good route for the oil cooler hoses to go too, so I'll start cutting and mounting that stuff up next week too.
For now it's a case of waiting a few days, while the bits I've ordered turn up, also gives me a chance to actually do some uni work
