yep, sat in the office. Paid out a £2100 bill on Wednesday to get my toy sorted and more tuning parts. And then haven't had a minute to drive it since.

BTW - I always wondered how flip paint would look on the S and was concerned it was too much of a classic design. I was wrong, yours looks fantastic!

Thanks, compliments greatly received,

The pic was taken whilst snowing so you cannot get the full effect but in sunshine it turns a glowing emerald green, the bonnet looks gorgeous when driving lol, only problem is i'm not near it and in the garage all alone.

I have not seen one before. Seen a few Griffs and Chims in it, but nothing older than that. Looks good, be interested to see a few better pics of it mind.

just looking at the blitz mirror gauges, look a bit nice.
any idea if the tiv are 52mm or 60 mm (oil, go go juice, too hot slow down etc)can't measure them from here.
wonder how difficult to put alternative gauges in, anyone with experience??

nice. Like what you have done in replacing the centre switches too - nice job. Looks very tidy indeed.

Also loving that Capri in the background.

thats the old mans baby lol.

currently off being modified, he wants to get it sprayed like the general lee, midlife crisis and all that.
Mind you he's spent so many years modding cars he's been a massive help getting mine back on tarmac after 5 years holed up in a shed.

The switches were done by a professional- way too much work involved for a novice like me, they would of ended up upside down and wonky if i'd of attempted it.
