What wheels will you be fitting? Some BBS lm reps would look awesome on this



Honda used a similar colour on the NSX, very original , I like it :)

I agree Very nice Colour, Is the colour Gold or Copper ??

Basecoat & top clearcoat, it will have a really deep shine once polished

I have not seen the bad boy bonnet look for a few years now.

both its copper gold pearl


picking up my new lifter shims in the morning,hoping this will sort out another mis-fire :evil: valve clearances are way off just hoping it hasnt burnt out another valve.if so its going to be quicker to just drop in a 2l 16v

going to be a few late nights this week to try and get it ready for fordfair.
have picked up my split rims.going to do a quick refurb on them black with copper outer edge.

hoping my sportvan kit from mod your transit will be ready for collection on wednesday then a quick paint and fitting.
fit the front coilovers

the list is getting smaller will i think it is
