like a say still needs few bits and looking for someone decent to give it a full hit.
will get a pic up of under bonnet (as this is where the major alteratuions done) tomorrow.

Nice Classic........
Colour coded front fog covers??????

Loose the scoop in favour of a standard classic one.

well under bonnet about there couple of little bits to alter/tidy ran her up to temp today so oil change tomorrow and a once over of everything then ready for paint shop and remap when back.

were the v7 scoops slightly bigger than what mine would of been

As in a bugeye one? I think they were slightly taller. There is a company that makes slightly taller ones for classic but they still look out of place imho and unnecessary as you get enough airflow through the standard scoop.

Yours will have had this one on it. The original and still the best on a classic, imho of course ;)

yeah still got that scoop in shed gona swap it tomorrow, air flow not a major issue as running front mount.

Yes, I have one fitted to my Type R as I've fitted a V8 intercooler and needed a larger scoop to clear the intercooler splitter. It looks 'okay', but I agree, the standard scoop looks best on a classic.
