Has to be one of my favorite builds atm, just noticed you have no indicator/wiper stalks, what have you used instead? My stalks sit a mile away from the wheel now with my steering boss, snap off boss and dished wheel :S On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

It's a mk1 style with the bulb bit missing as it perished. I've got the wiper switch on the dash rail. Kinda realised I can barely reach any of the switches when in the harness. Going to make up a different switch panel and bring it all closer to seating position eventually. |

Fair enough! My dash brings a lot of things closer to me so I shouldn't have as much of a problem, you could always fit a small switch panel down the side of the drivers seat somewhere for easy access On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

Did you warm it up first? I'm scared of snapping it really cos they're not cheap :/ Mine are the late 80's type On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

Whats the third one for?? Exactly that, dual line (aka two masters, one front, one rear) with a balance bar between them. Thanks guys, why would you need one for the front and rear? Standard setups on most cars have 1 between them? Cheers! Car looks really really good

I was going to bend mine a bit and extend it by putting a bit of thread on the end. Doubt you could do that with yours though.

Its almost ready to go. Just waiting on bloody minisport to deliver my exhaust. Should of ordered it sooner. I was going to trailer it to a local exhaust place and get one made up as I've had some clearance problems with the Y peace. Managed to cut it about and get it to fit though. Ordered a 2 inch exhaust system, maybe a little OTT for a 1380 but should be better when i get round to turbo power!

Ooh, what are those washer jets? Look like a better solution than the mini ones that spray at the wiper arms lol On 26th Jan, 2012 Tom Fenton said:

If you didn't see my other thread, my clutch bolt came undone (my fault). The clutch hub bit was pretty bad and so was the crank. One new hub and some clean up on the crank and its back together much tighter than before.
