products used -
- Autoglym body shampoo and jet wash rinse
- Autoglym Super resin polish
- Autoglym Super Gloss protector

came out good and im pleased with it, its sunny days like these that make you realise why you bought the car in the first place! lol 8)

cheers Tully,
I'm sure Northy will agree the car was a bit tired and grimey when i bought it, but its slowly but surely getting the full overhaul treatment! Already changed breaks, pads, brake lines, accellerator cable, Ecu chip (upgrade) rust treatment, Just ordered a gearknob and Bias valve and the car will be super! These cars are cool! haha

Dont suppose anyone knows the best place to get HT leads, Dizzy cap and rotor arm? fancy doing a service when i come home and was wondering wheres the best place to go?

i would buy the ignition stuff from GSF mate.

and get some fogs while your there :winkey:

is it generic to all williams and valvers? or is it going to be like the bias valve and be a complete twat!?

tried getting the foglight carriers off the bumper today, the bolts simply wripped the heads off! going to have to cut the bad boys out, do new ones come with them?

northy

new fogs come with screws - but the clip thats attached to the bumper stays if you know what i mean.

You will get the leads, dissy and rotor ok from gsf

I would put the original willy wheels on, it would look mint. Its amazing what a good polish/clean does to a car these days. 8)

haha yeah i actually love the colour, has a good depth to it and nicely metallic. looks awesome when waxed and polished, a bit flat when dirty or when its cloudy! haha
