When you get to my age you'll look back an think "why on earth did I have tints?!" The 90's have long gone dude


Agreed. but maybe its all part of the deception / sleeper look, then the light goes green and the pub talk ends


So last night I got a fair amount done with the help of my brother....

Firstly gave the interior bungs some back to black that had sat and soaked in over the previous night





Some general close ups of the engine bay....

Smoothed (not with filler!)







Strengthening across the lower chassis leg



Strengthening on the ecu engine mount



One of the general Engine bay



So we started with fitting the satshifter, first up was drilling out the hole through the bulkhead



& then the 2 holes for the gearstick...



Once we were 100% happy that it was perfect we double checked with the plate over it



Then we popped some sealant down onto it and stage 1 tightened it into place





Finally we fitted the unit to the bulkhead and the lower arm on that goes through the exhaust tunnel as well.



By this point it was 9:30pm so we finished up for the night. More progress tomorrow
