Thanks, yeah the body is reasonable, theres a couple of small dents in one of the doors. The bonnet looks terrible is getting very hazy. I need to buff it again so it doesnt look so bad.

I loved your old EF, followed the build pretty closely :P

Its just the stock fairmont leather one and iv put some new material over it as it looked crappy. I have done the same with the door trim cards as well. Looks much better and was a peice of cake to do!

Picked up my new clutch today. Its a Xtreme HD Unit, Ended up getting it for a touch over $300 which im very happy with. Flywheel is getting machined tomorrow. Will be picking up the Oil & other associated crap for the gearbox at the same time.

Hoping if i can get access to the pit at dads work to have it in Saturday... Providing its not too hot outside!

New 5 speed is in! New clutch is a dream (can chirp second now :P ) Had a bit of an issue with one of the pressure plate bolts, the head snapped off it so we had to run all over town trying to get new bolts & easy out tools!
