Day I got my rev1 didn't stop raining all the way home

Car had two white wheels and two black so thought I would give the wheels a fresh up
Image
Noticed a knocking on way home so replaced drop links and cleaned up inside the arches not much needed doing really clean underneath.next was the speedo stopped working after getting home from
Buying the car removed the dials and found some nice bit of work lol

So cut soldered and heat shrinked the lot :)
Then time to tidy the engine bay
