More Progress

Hi Guys,
Just thought i'd share my happiness....
Managed to spend a bit of time the last few days on the car:
Got front wiring in
Nosecone back on
Dash in
Battery fitted
Gearlever shortened
Brake leak sorted
Propshaft in and tightened up
Clutch fixed
Accelerator cable in (took about 6hours, thanks to Gavin (gavin174 and Paul (Snapper), finally got that in)
Rear suspension shocks put the right way up and tightened up for good
Front suspension sorted (Now the car is a reasonable ride height)
Front wheels aligned as best to eye
So all in all, a good few days.
Now tomorrow morning to wire up the starter/alternator and ignition bits again. Then all being well, a drive around the local farm!

Ahh Forget that. Managed to wire it all up after a few blonde moments. So its all running, But i still have this damn clutch problem!!!!
Think its down to my leverage system which is adjusted to the max at the mo, so need to get some big bits of steel made up next week!!!!
Is good to get it running, not idling very well though but if you stay on the throttle its fine!
