UPDATE TIME
Ok so today was quite a busy day!
- Replaced the tatty J4 covers with JP4 covers
A very nice upgrade, look more modern too!
- I also removed the ECU tray to paint
-I then noticed the arch under the ECU had been welded up properly and sealed.
But I didn't like the black colour so I covered it in a ick of red hammerite paint
- I also purchased a replacement bonnet as my current one has dents in it and bad paint failing in the corners.
Luckily, I come across a bonnet on Facebook in the same colour
I'm chuffed with it
(Bad) pics from today.......
JP4 covers
Old covers off...

Painted the arch in hammerite that had been welded up:

After:

Current bonnet condition:
Paint/ lacquer fading... (Looks worse in person)

Next plans:

- fit Compbrake and griffiths quick shifts
- fit rear Bilstein B8s
- find a 4-2-1 manifold
- wire slimline fan in
... Still loads more to add to the list!
