Really smart.

Lower the front more though! It's got to be lower at the front for sure - otherwise it just looks like you've got loads of shopping/bodies in the boot :p

Yeah front could come down really!

Looks great in yellow, will be nice when its all the same colour again!

Nice little project. I'm assuming it wasn't yellow originally?

Can you get original yellow Breadvans?

Big jump, lowered the front another 10mm bought a gt engine and box just in the process of rebuilding it, my rear arches have been reprimed and I'm thinking of mew colour schemes, recently bought all red cluster rear lights german oem, going for an oem+ look i have all new floor mats an the seats have been repaired'ish' its got a momo steeing wheel! Retro as you like dug it out from work if anyone knows the name let me know!

Just parked up round home now, waiting to pass my test drive it around ready for its new paint! Got an idea in mind,

Sorry about the mess in the car, a lot cleaner now!

Drove to devon and back about 4 hours from where i live and it never skipped a beat but i have no travel in the front suspention so I'm going to jack it up and see whats happening maybe order some arb blocks or some diffrent shocks

Here it is after abit of paint not the best but my first attempt so much more planned for fern with the original gt 88 striping and fitting her with a new heart a gt and gt box still the slugging 1043, I've arranged to pick up a set I new wings for the front too! Should be looking nice and clean when I'm done

Tell me what you think, thanks for reading

Thanks mate, I don't think I can, I can't carry passengers in the back anyway because it scrubs

I needed another hose to plumb up the carb to the water system, just found one off an old inlet manifold and if everything's okay it should be in over the weekend, also with a straight through pipe into the standard back box, I'm going to use the standard carb and airbox with a k and n filter, can anyone see any problems with the standard carb running on a gt bottom end and cylnder head?

Any help would be brilliant!

hope the lenses are there soon! i also have a gt converted bready but mines on bike carbs atm :) good choice and I've got a 1989 G reg too!

Engine back in all plumed up and wired up, apart from I wired up the starter wrong, typical, it should be firing up tomorrow morning! Looks all smart now

Sounds good Rob, we'll have to meet up at some point and you can take me for a spin with my old engine!
