No worries, my phone was playing up in any case, wasn't there all that long either! Some nice cars there but wasn't that big in terms of owners clubs etc..

Re my car, I'm now 100% set on a 360 kit, going to do a Stradale style, just finishing a car to sell then I'll have the funds to complete the build, just trying to find a good donor atm not many about with low mileage etc.

Also working on 360 dashboard etc.

But once I start hopefully be putting in quite a few hours a week, maybe do a build thread of my own - haven't decided yet! I'm itching to get started to be honest been waiting for over 2 years to get going, but close now.

Marty

Looks great JD! Does look finished, shame to take it apart but must be done!

I've got a genuine 360 dash that I've moulded it will replace the pug dash, I'll also be doing centre console etc.
