a LIL fishing village on the coast - Newcastle Upon Tyne

ok where be the best place for perspex side windows ? i would like them to have the sliding hatches on for both doors ? anyone any tips re fitting them.

iam also after aluminium diamond / chequer plate on the cheap, anyone any contacts ? it is for me floor n doors.

and finally flat front style head lamps ? anyone know where i can get em ? used to have em on me mk2 and fancy them again

***I know the above should be in the wanted / general section***

ok fuel lines. i am running 8mm feed and return, i have a stock tank do i need to drill off the original outlet off the tank and have that as 8mm too or is it not that crucial ? also on fueling does it matter where the reg goes ? i was thinking about putting it in the boot so i have less pipework going to the front ?

cheers

I know there is alot there but bear with me

I can see what you're getting at, however, you would still need to run a boost signal to the regulator, thus saving exactly no piping!

the design shows a distinct lack of imagination,
talk about starting off with a clean sheet of paper, then not bothering to fucking draw on it,lol

Hi,
Yuo could do with 10mm coming ouyt of the tank, as I think that's the size of the pump inlet.
I wouldn't put the reg in the boot, as you'll get fuel flow problems when accelerating.
Cheers,
