Been out all day in the pi$$ing rain and it's bone dry
Also got the powerflow exhaust fitted today although I think it sticks out too much about 2" so will take it back tomorrow for some minor mods.

Must be a labour of love....
Yep see is that, but as I drive her most days I cant do that much more, when I get a my work motor, I will stop using her for work runs and I will take her to the next level, like to do an engine swap.
I need to fix the heater matrix so the dash has to come out at some point so hope to fit aircon at the same time :-(
I am still on the look out for a crashed B with aircon.
This week my Dad got hold of the original Fiat speaker box for me, so thats going in this week I have been after one for ages.

Looks like some of the rubbers have been removed as well....
Would be a good buy for the hood frame but I dont know of any Bs that have had problems with the hood frame rusting out.
It could be a punt for the rubbers but looking at the hood condition I dont think I would.
