Hope to see it nailing down the lanes next time I am down! BaaaAAARP! Cheers mate, I suppose its the only good thing about living down in devon, theres plenty of good lanes and back roads.. ;D I don't suppose you know anyone locally that can make my carb manifold? I've got the flange, I rang bogg brothers and they want over £200 just for a manifold which seems a bit excessive for a flat bit of alloy with 4 tubes.

	MORE UPDATES... Well as I've had the week off work I decided to get off my ar*e and get rid of the last bit of rust on the old girl, I also got my GTE bumpers sprayed over the weekend, It helps when you share a house with a sprayer.. Before.. After, Its not as tidy as I'd like it to be, but the battery box sits in this corner so by the time I've slapped half a pot off sealer in there and put the battery back in you will never know. And some shinny new bumpers.. Obligatory stickerzzz init..

	Some good work going on here, glad you got rid of the smooved boot though as it was terrible. Are you ditching the aerospace fuel filler? I reckon a really late Mk2 Astra or Belmont 1.8 CDi would be a great car to have, i would love one. seem to be quite rust prone like.

	The filler cap is the next thing on the list to go, I'll have to wait till i get that arch done as some one sprayed the car with it on so if i take it off now there will be a round paintline.

	Looks loads better with the normal bootlid. Wheels look ace too. Matt
