neilnaz Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 James how are your plans for your lovely 2000 coming on? Is it just very very well kept or has it been restored? I thought it looked fantastic when I saw you at the beginning of the HCR. You plans are for a manual plus overdrive conversion and some suspension and performance mods aren't they?Do tell! You can tell I am not busy at work can't you?neil Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Manual conversion, suspension and lighting - that's the main list.I've actually started a new blog that currently sits here:http://www.mintylamb.co.uk/wordpress/Hopefully by the end of the weekend that will be the new website too.

sahtuning2000 Posted May 26, 2007 Author Share Posted May 26, 2007 All done,started at 1.30pm,finished at 5pm,gearbox swopped and all seems well,new clutch(already looked quite new)and everything fitted as should be,just waiting for the speedo cable to arrive,and sort out the wiring,and of course for it to now stop raining,dry when we started,but pouring down now,but its in company with a load of Renaults waiting for more serious expensive items to arrive!,at least its nice and dry...
