nothings happened but iv changed my mind again:

so things im after doing are

removing the rear seats
all sound deadening from the rear
remove boot plastics
remove boot carpet, paint all glacier white
im in talks over a rear strut brace
hopefully in time get a dimma cage in
my cesaros are prov sold and may have cav slabs coming in(£50 off a mate) so they will be on for a few month but when im clear of debt i will get 5! cesaros and do them white
get the car cc'd
in talks over a smooth boot
morettes
cams, 4-2-1 manifold and inlet manifold
then maybe swap the cali leathers for some buckets ? we'll see
