Dan, it doesn't look like anything external has changed under the hood. It needs a really good detail and a few minor things corrected that were like it when I bought it. The engine internally was upgraded a little with camshaft, lifters, springs and timing chain.

Gave it a thorough clean today, top to bottom, inside and out. Took most of the day to get it to an acceptable standard. Also fitted the redlines onto the SS wheels. These wheels are actually AO stampings. Would have preferred them to be YA but they will do for now. Fitted a new trunk mat, proper spare wheel and jack components, R59 battery and cross mesh air filter. Still a lot of things to be corrected but I will get there over time. We will do registration tomorrow and hopefully have the front end lowered a little this week and we are good to go.

Looks nice,but take that red CAUTION tag off the + battery post.
That's something the new world mfrs. have to send with the reproduction battery,&amp; not vintage to your car.
Remove those cowl grilles,change those headers,spark plug wires &amp; P/S belt too.

Some more progress this week. Registration is done and had the front dropped a little today.
Ready for the sunshine!
