That's looking great Stu! Are you planning an MOT anytime soon? What are the brakes like, did they go on ok?

MOT tomorrow... fingers crossed..

Apparently brakes fitted on very well, according to Flak Monkey, and look the part, and seem to work well too going by low speed stops and E brake... front discs have a bit of corrosion and I haven't braked in anger yet so hoping it's all good... Had a look today to start a list of little jobs, and very happy !!!!

Passed !!!!!
Now all the tidy up jobs. My body shop guy has seen it and reckons it should polish up OK, even with a few touch ups. Doors could do with repainting ideally.

Barely used it last couple of weeks due to being busy with work, crap weather etc....

Dropped it off at Autopontiac today for alignment, new heater matrix, speedo cable and sorting a few things Flak Monkey ran out of time for.
Good to see their Trans Am race car looking to good in black now and quicker than ever I'm told...
