Wheels are now away for refurb and since the big end started rattling i figured i'd get to work, after a good look over the car i'll need welding around the turret bottoms and a tidy up under the arches:

I spent ages looking over that shot of your valves thinking "what? There's nothing wrong..." Then I FINALLY saw what meant... :(

Car looks nice though, I love that colour! :)
