Teething problems continue . What a last 2 weeks . First clutch plate problem , snap ignition key , then faulty fuel regulator and now after Thursday events blown head gaskets. So tonight guess what I'm doing.

Great job Matt. It s fantastic to see another running Capri in the club (these bugs will be short term). Looking forward to seeing your new car as part of a big roll up at the All Ford Day at Kedron.

Ok heads back together except extractord as I have misplaced a gasket. New front parcel shelf thanks John looks sweet. Just in process of mounting fire extinguisher on passengers side. Engine decals arrived so they can ho on now . Still need to scrub engine bay from all the mud . Close now atleast its registered now so the fine tuning begins.

OK its almost been a year now that its been on the road. I must say they're a fun car to own drive. I don't get it out as much as I like but when I do enjoy it and all the had work seems worth it. Future plans watch this space. In the development stages at the moment. I frequent lakeside raceway often for regular shows and enjoy displaying it. Its funny how many people either had one or experienced one . cheers we need more projects guys.:-)

Hi All !
the above projects look great and 10/10 to you all for keeping on keeping on !  Such satisfaction when it's all done!
RED ALERT !..............I need a PAIR OF VGC D PORT HEADS   P L E A S E  ! ........local head guy wants $1000 to just fit 6 new exhaust valves and K-line them, which retail isn't super rich, but for trade I'm guessing it's a bit rich ?
Maybe I'm wrong ?  I'm up for enlightenment!
