That looks sweet mate.any pics, personally id paint it and change the rocker cover or paint ur old rocker cover up! mayb a snazzy dipstick but not coil covers(i personally think these look tacky) get the wire brush on all the rusty bits, tidy up the manifold with some high temp paint

Get a lucas sports coil, anodised gold, then anodised dipstick, paint the engine and block, polished rocker cover, then wire brush and paint brackets, clean carb up. and paint/polish thermostat housing to match rocker cover. Lastly nice new plugs and leads and a blue silicon rad top hose if you can get it... A K&N always helps tooany pics, personally id paint it and change the rocker cover or paint ur old rocker cover up! mayb a snazzy dipstick but not coil covers

I might get a set of blue NGKr HT leads. My engine is red, but its all faded off, I wouldnt mind paiting it blue but is it hard work? Would I have to drop the block out to do so?

The whole block is physically different, painted green or not.
