How is exhaust can supported? If you have used rubber bobbin type thing it may not be immediately obvious that you have a hard steel square edge just
under a thin skin of rubber. If this is same as mine then it need to be trimmed. I made a piece of ali, curved and adged then stuck this on with PU
adhesive.
My mount is square Fiesta engine mount (2 steel plate with studs sticking out, rubber in middle - steel plates are not immediately visible but
constitute an adge that has to be radiussed).
Handbrake cable connections - i failed for using u saddles. Had to convert to commercially made nipples.

ISTR holes in grille should be no more than 45mm. I have 4 horizontal rods, and was advised to fit mesh behind at first SVA. I did and liked it better
so its still on.

Do you think if I fit my old grille behind this one it will be ok ? (it's a grille usually used in a fire place and I changed it because I
thought it was to charp for Mr SVA)

Hi dom Beautiful looking car....
2 questions... Looking at the large photo of full car, The angle of view of your front indicators may be a fail. Of course it may be the photgraph but
the rule is something like.. 50% of the lights surface should be visable from the angles 45 degrees to 80 degrees.
Secondly.. do you have side repeaters as the ones on your wing again may be a fail?
Cheers and good luck John
