Made a few purchases. Ashley exhaust for the engine conversion, african spec rear lights, and fuel pressure regulator. I'm really excited to do the engine rebuild :)

Also now has a 12 month MOT :)

Found this on ebay quite cheap. A smooth kr rocker cover. It wasn't much money but really impressed with it. I think it will look nice in contrast to the carbs.

Who makes the dealer kit and how much?

I think it was DBgraphics and about 30 quid, if I remember correctly.

Weekend after Edition I went to the lowcollective show. Unfortunately I broke down on the way there. The middle of the clutch had rusted through from being sat for so long :(



At this point I was debating to bring the engine swap forward, however I decided just to fit a clutch so I could go to Westside and the MK1 Central London meet.

A picture from Westside.



And to my suprise I came away with this just as I was going…



Anton.

Unlucky on the clutch but glad you're running again.

Congrats on the trophy though - nice one!  :thumbs:
