Yes, I am still working at MUK, make him ready for winter, and now I have done over 1000 miles, few things need tweeking, suspension overhaul, re-do the exhaust(air leaks), and re-tuning engine!!

re-tuning,.... 1) connected engine breather outlet to carb,2) change needle from ADE to AAU 3)re-set all valve clearances, 4)change engine steady bushes to origional ones 5) new earth cables for better grounding when starting. With these done I can drive with ease and have a better attentive reaction from engine and he is going faster then before, a lot faster!!

Dash,... I am still working on that one, have a new walnut dash with 3 holes for 52mm gauges and a 2 hole bineacle, I am renovating a few gauges and getting it ready for the transfur, not an easy job I can tell you, patience required here,....it has to look perfect in the end without scatches and nothches, and all gauges need to work to if possible lol.

Hifi is in but speakers not in final position as yet,..but a lot of noise from that for sure,....
