a few things arrived this week which i was hoping for last week so i could have them in before action day last sunday...

anyway a brand new glen ring bosch 010 and some vintage cloth leads to get rid of the hideous 009 and blue leads

as seen on sunday.....

http://a2.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/421662_10151022878177063_420639641_n.jpg

As of today.....

Love my vintage speed shit..... no more flat spot either 8)

only one thing left thats bugging me in that engine bay now is the reg.... but once it goes into my oval it'll be 6 volt again and a small reg can go back on :wink: 8)
