Well, I've completed all the running electrics, and rigged up temp connections from the oil pressure and ign. warning lights.

It turns over, and the fuel pumps clatter away. I believe I can also here the injectors clacking...

All it needs now is a little application of unleaded, and fingers crossed, she should start! :-)

I've also ordered my instruments - I plumped for a matched set from ETB, as they seem to be cheaper then anywhere else, and are SVA OK out of the box (unlike the ones I wanted to get from Europa)

100mm Speedo and Rev Counter, 52mm Oil Pressure, Water Temp, Fuel & Volt Meter. Didn't bother with a clock, as time will mean nothing when I'm driving.

They should take a week to arrive - I'll post some pics when they do.
