Thanks Ian. No sorry all current pictures are on here. The cars been under a cover all winter and will be coming back out for the summer when I plan to get some jobs finished on it and improve on it further. No I plan on keeping the car as close to standard as possible. It will be getting a full re-spray at some point and if the engine ever does get swapped it maybe for a 1.1 which would of originally been in it

The car is back on the road for the summer now with some original steel wheels



Quick refurb

The wheel standing up didn't get used and will be kept for a spare



And fitted on the car
