Not a lot has been happening on the mod front lately, more so I have been spending some time and effort on the mechanical / maintenance side of things. Having to replace the blown welsh plugs brought to my attention the fact that the car might need some mechanical TLC, so as a matter of course, I recently installed a full regrind kit, new thermostat, coolant / radiator flush, got rid of the emissions crap on the carburettor, installed a fresh electronic distributor, and gave it a nice clean down with some degreaser. The car runs like a dream, and I can rest assured it won't likely experience any more hiccups.
I have spent the weekend attacking the doors with some VHT vinyl dye (satin black, not taxi-spec gloss), relocating the head unit, fibreglassing the dash / facia, and installing a 12" subwoofer and amplifier. The car looks and goes well now. Time to finish the interior now with fresh black carpet, VHT-dye the brown seats a light tan colour, recarpet the parcel shelf, and finally move on to the bodywork. After this the project will more or less be complete :)
