April 16, 201214 yr Author comment_597744 Haven't been able to do any work lately because my brothers had my car but today i put some rust remover on back gaurd and tomorrow or next, I'm going to bog both sides up and remaining holes left from old bumpers Also thinking about installing a central locking kit very soon at the same time thinking about shaving door handles? bad good idea? I'm thinking it could be sick if i do it right. other projects coming up hopefully find a new radiator to replace the old shitty one in it atm also going to degrease engine bay and underneath the car very soon seems like there is a fair bit of oil coming out of somewhere..

April 16, 201214 yr comment_597758 Also thinking about installing a central locking kit very soon at the same time thinking about shaving door handles? bad good idea? I'm thinking it could be sick if i do it right. I did the central locking on my old '30 http://www.rollaclub.com/board/topic/36792-towes-turtle/page__st__60#entry479755 The front ones are pretty straight forward. The solenoids are straight below the door locks at the bottom of the doors. The back doors aren't as straight forwards, the only problem is the rods need to be knicked in about three places. Shave the rear door handles and swap the front ones from a different model car. Still keep the lift up handle style but something a bit later. Report

Awesome thanks for info on central locking hopefully get the cash to order kit soon Also good idea for doors tthinking it might look a bit bair with all shaved, i can imagine back ones and front left would look nice :) Report
