Cheers guys for the compliments, it is looking fresh once again! Yeah the wheels are 10 x 6 Deep Dish Minilites, polished rim happy I just love the deep dish look. Think Im going to need the Group 2 'wide' arches just to cover them up! Arches will be gloss black with a chrome strip running dow nthe side tease The only problem is that it doesnt want to start! smack Its running a bit rich coz the sparkies are covered in black! ...until I broke one that was smack

Hmmm what next? I'll leave you in suspense...

the black on the plugs could be cause you stop and start it cause the engine and plugs need to reach a certain temp before they start burning any carbon of them.again looks gud

Yeah your right, It got it fired up! I said I would get it going today even if it killed me. And i did, all by myself! laugh Gave the sparkies a light sand, put them back in and replaced the one I managed to break happy

The black on the sparkies was because it was a bit rich from using so much choke to get it started!

Anyway, jobs a gooden! thumbsup

I could see the floor throught the floor! So to make things more strong and with less rust, dad set to work on cutting out the rust and welding the floors up. So here is the cut out section:
