Ok update:
I have just installed a wade 1636 cam yesterday, after losing lifters a couple times a mate and myself finally got it all in and back together only to find the car wouldnt start, just cranked ( Barstard!!!! ), b4 i started pulling things apart again it started, blew some smoke and ran very rough, wouldnt idle, and was ИИИИing and farting a bit,

After letting it warm up while keeping it going ( still running rough ) it smoothed out a bit, i adjusted the idle up so it ran on its own, the motor shook but ran, after 10 minutes or so she started to run smoother until it purred like a kitten and now starts first go like it should and runs fine with only a small lump at idle, so then i took it for a drive only to smell oil burning!!!!

Back of the rocker cover gasket was leaking, went and got a new one, put that on and now shes all sweet as a nut,
Now performance wise i was happy with it, lots more up top, useable revs too not just revving lol,
So for 122.50 and the handover of one of my old stock cams it was well worth it, im glad it all came good without pulling hair out... lol
Also on another note i have decided against the gt body kit but i still have the hornet scoop on which is how the car is goin to get painted now,
the kit just didnt do it for me, i like the wing but it looks silly without the rest,

Im still holding off on paint for a while as im ripping the head off next to drop the better part of 1000 on it with the addition of my nitrous kit when i get a few bits and pieces for it ( converting it from dry to wet kit ),
Will post up some more pics and progress soon,
Cheers lads

Hmm well fellas that was shortlived, the ea has been written off, someone i know had the car at their house, came outside when they heard a massive bang and a drunk ***** had smashed into the front of the car, jumped out the his own car and ran off...
Obviously leaving his car there he was tracked down and is now goin to cough up...
So im going to be doing up the daily driver i have which is my ef....
Cheers

sometimes it can be a blessing in disguise, do you think you'll get more money than what you spent?

Not looking too fancy. In the photo, it still looks fixable. Is it just panel damage or is there more to it than the photo suggests?
