Here's a few piccys as a lot of small jobs have been done over the past few weeks in the run up to yesterdays MOT.


I made up trim rings for the handbrake and gear-lever and fitted leather gaiters. I've also fitted foot rests for the passenger and for the drivers clutch foot for those longer journeys I also added an access panel behind the drivers foot rest as I needed to replace the speedo cable.
And I've also moved the steering wheel slightly down and slightly to the left so that I can use the oem Vitesse wheel and keep the skin on my knuckles

Here's a pic of the finished (for now) interior




Exterior wise, I've raised the front suspension by about an inch and fitted new headlamps with built in sidelights as even though I liked the posh Lucas ones, I didn't want to drill them or the bodyshell atm.
btw the angle of the rear wheels isn't anywhere as bad as it looks in this photo!!



I've only done 14 miles on a few small trips today (only passed yesterday and I'm just eliminating the final gremlins as I build up confidence!) but I have already found that my door pockets are exactly the right size to transport celebratory beer back from the local shop



I've got more bits-n-bobs to post, but they can wait as the last few days have been hectic and those beers won't drink themselves
