Re: back from the bodyshop & new suspension on.
Ahhh. Pics are in my garage mate, sorry I should have said.
The plate relocation is a love it or hate it thing. I have a spare plate and rev1 grill so I can swap it back in 10mins if I want. For the time being I'm loving it. I know many say it but it's true.... It looks great in the flesh, particularly on the move.

Looking great, Rob
By the way, I saw in another thread something about an engine conversion. Reckon a V6 would be just the job 
So, what's the plan?

Re: back from the bodyshop & new suspension on.
Heya Matt hows trix fella?
To be honest there are no conversion plans at the moment. Up to Rogue in 10 days for the dash out and a new heater matrix. That, the bodywork and the suspension are enough for now (so my bank account tells me!). I'm hoping with all the work done to get another 7 or 8yrs out of it. The engine is still running really well and it would be discourteous to discard it when it's still serving me so well (189k now!).
When it does finally let go hopefully I'll have clean bodywork and pretty new suspension still so at that point I'll convert but even so I'm torn between a v6 and a beams if I could find one. I'll worry about it when it happens.
How's yours? Done much to it recently?
Glad you like what I've done to the old gal. I didn't want to modify the exterior too much with a kit 'cos you know I love the look of the standard car but with it that bit lower and the new spats I'm really pleased with the results. If you're still doing Cambridge meets let me know when the next one is and I'll pop along and catch up over a beer.
