Re: Rattler's 2a civvy restoration project
Right guys I've just found out sometime when I take pic's and transfer them to my laptop I have two image sizes big and small but this doesn't always happen so I have made a note of where is the best place in my drive where I can take pic's and post them on here just hope it works next time

Re: Rattler's 2a civvy restoration project
Fitted some of the fuel pipes today just need a couple of series supply pipes for fittings to make a new supply pipe and a return pipe, then I moved onto fitting the front shocks fitted one then found the N/S/F spring plate was the wrong plate for the car as the shocker was close to the swivel flange, think its from a S1 so I need to buy the correct one now
