Do you still have the non spacers drums?

Thanks for the kind words guys. I actually used up a few days of holiday to get it all wrapped up but it was definitely worth it. 

 

 

This is perfect, and I seem to be commenting a lot haha. You've also done this far too quickly!

 

How do you find the minispares dash cards? I attempted to make my own but soon gave up, thinking about buying some now.

The dash cards are really good. They would have been much easier to fit if I hadn't already wedged the ashtray in though. If you start at the outside and work towards the centre they go in fairly smoothly.

I've still got them under my work bench but they're a bit passed it.

Oh, if they're nackered then it doesn't matter. Was going to change mine to non spacered to see how it looked

They're not exactly knackered, they're just not all shinny and new. Are you going to Stoneleigh Park

 on Sunday? I could bring them along with me if you are.

I doubt I will be to be honest, the mini still has a horrible misfire that I need to sort out. I'll let you know if I can make it down there though

Hopefully he'll find a good home.  :(

Big fan of the Austin 1300 although I would prefer the GT and I love the All-aggro estate.

That's putting it lightly, I wasn't expecting to go nearly as high though. It did look really nice under decent lights and it was sat right in the entrance to the auction so it was one of the first cars that everyone saw.

Now on a slightly less happy note. 

 

I had to roll the Allegro out side to get some other cars moved around last week and while I was off at lunch some a$$ hat drove into it and didn't even have the curtesy to leave a note. Unfortunately the cameras in the yard weren't pointing at it so I'm stuffed as far as finding out who did it.

I can understand that whoever hit it probably panicked and/or thought it was just there for scrap but I'm still pretty angry that I'll have to send ages straightening what was a fundamentally perfect door.
