Looks like new!! Good work!
Oh and btw, is it lowered in any way? The wheels fill out the arches perfectly! Springs?

Well, last week, fitted 190 front brake upgrade & new anti roll bar drop links.

Ive never been too sure about the interior colour mix on my 75. Sandstone door cards with vinyl smokestone against smokestone seating. So all door cards and centre console are now smokestone. A few more bits to source but really pleased with how it turned out.
Plenty still to do.

What did I do in my ZT today? I just drove it and enjoyed myself

Fixed my door handle - turrning the key was not turning the driveshaft or unlocking anything so I was 100% reliant on the central remote locking.

Eventually got a donor handle a few weeks ago...

Finally today got around to taking the doorhandle off (easy thanks to the excellent how-to threads on here

) took out the broken cable and replaced it... all back together now and the key locks and unlocks the door

No more 100% reliance on the remote key fob and prayng not to have a flat battery!

Then I fitted a new subwoofer with a much better low frequency response. Sounds great..

Then I went out for a nice drive and rain-ex'd all the windows.

Happy days

Yes, calipers are bigger and so are the discs

Well today i had the pleasure of fitting a new crankshaft pulley(lovely easy job-NOT!),also fitted a replacement O/S rear door lock.
Now,no more engine rattle and all doors lock/unlock! RESULT.

Did plan on washing/waxing but never got chance..........there's always tomorrow

Fitted a pair of Bosch Aero wipers and tested the FBH. It cuts out after 127 seconds so looks like some attention will be needed.
