It's do as I say, not as I do Very hypocritical

I had a similar issue with air cleaner clearance on a slant 6 Valiant. One of the things I did to gain a bit of clearance was to shorten the passenger side engine mount bracket by 3/4", which gained more than an inch at the carburettor, I also raised the back of the bonnet about 3/4".

I tried to post a photo of my first MKI, also my first car (on the road) Can't seem to work out how.

I am not a More door MK1 fan, but that car just looks right

I agree, they are a bit odd looking. That said, I would also like to have one.

Early BW35 XP-XW ish were shorter than the later (XA onwards)

Bring it in minus engine, gearbox, and brakes? Or with those bits in the back, but disassembled and clean?

That seems like good value, add about $3K to get it here.

Yeah, I think repairing a rusty import is going to be cheaper/easier/better than trying to build one from a sedan/coupe/van.

I think a van would be easier, no, just less difficult. It"s not going to be easy.

GS Escorts have them as well, the switch panel that is.

Classic trim in the UK have a really nice one, a bit pricey though.

Thanks anyway. Good to see you have it going well.

Where do you buy the repro centre panel?

Sounds like it is definitely going better
