Today I wrapped the calipers off to go to a company i found in nottingham that will fully refurbish them at £52 per caliper inc vat so that was a bonus and they will come back like new

Started buying pipes etc for the cooling system and have a nice induction kit from a mazda mx6 to fit in, next job is to get some pipes made up mainly for fuel supply to run to the pump and into the injection system

Had an idea to sort out the manky bonnet and that was fit some after market vents to replace the horrid holes someone cut in the bonnet as it seems a mission to buy a replacement bonnet
These are only stick on but ill be gluing them properly to the bonnet and then filling and fairing them in before painting so they look a lot nicer than they do now, I may even cut them down to make them more flush.
these were £16 for the pair from china inc P&P so at that price it saves me a lot of cash
I may even put them the other way round yet so they are not so obtrusive but its a means to an end for that problem otherwise I was thinking of a cutting the bonnet right out and buyin a vintage muscle car power bulge for it, will have to see how they look cut down
