Over the past few months since the last update, well what feels like half a year the car has been off for tuning, sadly whilst being tuned the copper head gasket let go meaning I had to do get it home and change the gasket ~ it was leaking on cylinder 4 and in all honesty not sealing very well on any other cylinder either
I changed back to a multi layer gasket as would have been fitted as standard which looks to have fixed the issue.
Having a project car over such a long time has already made me see things I would like to change... it is difficult to keep the car to the original idea as I have new thoughts and styles.
The car did have the roof skin in raw aluminium, this needed to be sorted so I arranged to take the car to the body shop in October and that is where it still is. The guys were really busy and could not fit me in but they have been working on it in the background. This included them sourcing a new booth over the Christmas holidays. Finally it is ready for paint, it looks so clean and the job has been done so well.
I will have it back in a week and I am excited as I have built a new garage while it has been away and now I will have lots of space to work on it. Maybe try and finish it...
That is all at the moment, I have been doing a lot more mods but I need the car back to install them, then take photos and update this blog
