I like the colour. Are you leaving it like that or continuing with the rest of the plastics?

without trying to sound harsh, I don't like the colour interior, might look better in the flesh though. Good work on the manual conversion though.

i reckon it looks good. What's with the gear knob is it sitting a bit funny ? That picture of the guy under the car with black hands is all too familiar! And starter motors are easy to remove unless the top bolt is cross threaded :O

Starter is easy long extension through the intake manifold with a uni always does it quick and easy for me.
leaks are all fixed main leak was rear main seal. The gear knob is from **** knows im going to change it. |
