Rear fog light, bonnet clips, front number plate, battery mounting, front grille, new air filter, adjust the brakes and tracking
I think that’s about it :D

There was nothing going on at work yesterday so I went home and spent some time on the car. Fitted the rear fog light, adjusted the brakes, fitted pedal rubbers, fitted battery, rechecked all nuts and bolts, fitted front number plate and bonnet clips.
The Air filters have turned up today, so I've just got to sort out the mirrors and I think its ready for MOT

Not being any good at mechanics and not seeing how a car goes together.
I must say I enjoyed reading about this.

It looks great and well done Matt.
Regards Robert

Bit more done over the last few days
Tracking done.
Carbs removed, stripped, cleaned and refitted.
Checked fuel pressure found it to have 6 psi which is about double what they need so have changed the pump to a motorbike one, now it sits nicely at around 3 psi.
Drove it up the road its quick! Needs the brakes bedding in though
