my dads built many car. He gonna just got though a quick check for me at the weekend.

As i said before

Engine Sound perfect and i must say i have reved it :D being a 17 year old lad and no ratlles or anything.

Gears change smoothly

no noises

But i got a couple of lil niggles nothing major. Just a few dash lights gone heater and stuff.

Also i think the thermsiate has gone as my engine doesnt seem to heat up that quick

Ive heard the hand brake cable can be something in this car is this true

Also i have noticed my starter motor looks kinda moldy :wink: still runs fine though.

Engine starts before first turn over

Lights all work


ANything thing else i shoudl check. Also theres not rust what so eveer

o yea heres a pic for ur veiwing pleasure lolz

very stock. Anything you think i could do without adding insruacne and not to much cost

As u can guess im still learnign to drive
