Hi Tom,

The seats are a marketplace find and came with torana rails. They are autotechnica seats.

The backrest is a little narrow for me. but other than that they do the job.

To be honest, I'll probably just bite the bullet and go a hoppers kit.

Realistically though, I need to get ahead again and get a bit of money saved before doing much else with it.

I want to get the handbrake cables done though so I can at least drive it here and there.

The only other issue is that I'm not sure if it's running hot or not. I purchased a 304 sender and once warm its off the gauge, change to a 6 cylinder UC sender and its off the gauge once warm too.

So not really sure if it's actually running hot or not.

Do you have a 0V wire from the battery to the body?

Don't worry about the missing engine number. It is how you bought it and that is that. They will issue you with a new one. It makes it easy to convince them that it is a 78/79 block.

Hawk you going to killer cars tomorrow?

Yel, the 0 volt wire is there.

EDK, mernda is about an hour from me, so probably not at this stage. especially when I'm not sure if the car is running hot.

Shiney, I'll look into what needs to happen.
