Thanks everybody for the kind words and also for the assistance you gave me during the build. I would love to do another one - the Harrison kit is very easy to work with, it's probably not worth a divorce (although cheaper).

Greg - I doubt that I will make the next club meeting, seeing the surgeon next week. I should be right for April - Melbourne weather permitting.

Nicho - The badges came from Billet Badges ( www.billetbadges.com ). They'll make anything from a sample, photo or drawing.

Merv - The seats came from ( http://www.classicandsports.com.au/ ) in Melbourne.

Zedn - The floor lighting is blue high intensity leds. The Reversing lamps are super bright white leds too.





The hoses in engine bay need tidying up. I also plan to fabricate an air box with cold intake. I'm considering a mafless setup too.



The size of the glovebox was useles so I put the radio and 12V outlet in there.

So much to like about your car Peter - Im still running that style maf in mine - its bigger than most but still must restrict a bit and limits options for intake design. These Edelbrock coil covers are very nice and would tidy up things alot, I was able to run must the wiring and vacuum hose(s) underneath them as well.

Your engine bay is sensational. You've really thought a lot about simplifying and tidying it up. You've given me some real food for thought..

And here is a example why we are never finished with these cars....... there is always something else.

Your interior has given me food for thought and I can feel my wallet getting lighter already.

Sambo, the bodywork was done at Stylerod Panels in Croydon (who incidentally used to do the paintwork for Robnells).
The roll bar is for aesthetics - just like the head it's supposed to protect.
Damn that engine bay looks good Andrew, leave the bonnet off it shouldn't be covered up.
