      Looks great mate, good to see you still doing work to it. Should come along pretty damn nice when all your parts arrive hehe.

      Dont know how you find the motivation
      Btw i LOVE your guards, and the other thing is, do i need a throttle linkage seperately, or does it come with it?

        i bought a universal weber linkage kit from the states.
        It came with all brackets and everything. much better then a DIY i say, my main problem was my carb didnt come with the throttle leaver. so the kit was good for me.

        And For $35 posted to my door, cheap as

        Yes i love the flared guards, still needs more work, but my body work motivation = 0

                      So i picked up the last of the bits i need for the bumpers, But im out of Satin black

                      On a good note i got car started on the new intake setup tonight, only gotta to tinker for 10 mins before fan wouldnt kick in
                      But it idles at 2k, and i can only drop it to 1100rpm even with the idle screw not touching throttle leaver.

                      My guess is a airleak, so will check all the bolts and hoses and stuff tomorrow. got a feeling i forgot something

                        Finished off front bumper, it really needs another coat as a few bits are a little light. but Meh i love it
                        Also adjusted my linkage as i think thats the cause of the high idle.
                        And also fitted my sticker on rear window, my car, my mods, so do as the sticker says LOL




                        I have end caps on rear now, just not in pic atm!!
