So undoing all the work Simon did Embarassed

New Wheels n Tyres fitted straight away (absolutely nothing wrong with the SD refurbished ones save for the tyres) so these are dry stored if and when I show the car as BFG KO's no longer available (only KO2's now great tyre just not original)

LPG removal I hate LPG full stop why people fit it is beyond me but that's that. Now 165 had under slung torpedo tanks so nothing to invasive interior wise. However mechanically new/replacement manifolds required due to lpg stuff, so removal and refitting required upon refitting the heads distorted by 3mm Shocked so currently heads off to a machine shop to get it all lined up Very Happy (Thought about chucking a LS3 in but I want matching numbers )

So hopefully back in time for me to get her off to the trim shop for new matching grey carpet

Saw this when I dropped mine off, was a work of art. But I get your point on the tanks and there are some good looking wheels around.....
