Cheers Ian,
love the pasted page, thats a really polite and subtle way of saying "But that cam cover sticker looks a bit shit" 😉 and I would agree with you. I was considering buying a transfer but I may go the whole shot and buy one of these.

There is a danger with me on projects that I do all the important (hidden) stuff and then skimp on the small details that everyone will see 🙄.

Finished today by fitting the 4th engine mount, torquing all the mounts up and sorting out all the bits and pieces that need to go back on the car, thankfully the list is getting smaller now.

Sincerely hope we'll be able to read ALL the numbers on your gear knob.

My major concern is that you actually drive it. Not sure I could. It is simply stunning. Jaw bone fully de-articulated.

LOL, cheers Ayli.
Dont worry #180 will definitely get driven when its completed, I definitely have not done all this work to have it sat in the garage all the time. Although it certainly wont be seeing any winter weather, thats 100%.
On decent days however it will get to know Wales and the Lake District, plenty of great roads around there 👍
