I put a new one on her !!!

Be careful - from memory there was something about that one . . . double check it matches before odering one.
The one on it came from Dave Eady, FYI.

I'd suggest going electric . . .

No the exhuast is in one piece now!! albeit a bit short!!! LOL

nick69 · April 18, 2006, 01:43:18 PM

Well got the exhaust done today. Took one off the Cougar and gave it to my mechanic and he did a cracking job of putting it on. Side exit, sounds cool!!! Not too loud now!!
Electric fuel pump will be with me tmw then a FULL service this week/weekend.

Seat covers are off and being sent off for re-covering. Started sanding the bodywork today at work. Ordered some paint, so I should be able to start the paint in the next week or so!!!

The car pulls like a bloody train now!! Plus its got a shift kit and 318 heads on which is nice!!!

Just got to do something with the wheels and jobs a gooden!!
