So a few weeks ago I spent the weekend giving the boot a quick sand and paint. Didn't get any before photos unfortunately but it had a spray can black paint job that was awful, so trust me that it's an upgrade.
Got some MDF and carpet and made up a quick insert to tidy it all up.
Still got to get a new rubber for the boot seal evidently. Had to replace fix the exhaust pipe and do a new gasket as it was a bit too smokey. Got to have a look at the starter motor as one of the wires insulation had melted away since the new engine was put in.
Everything is still trotting along at an alright pace, soon to hopefully be my daily driver!
