well i've finally found some dollars and the work has begun. most of the mechanical things seem to be working properly and now its just down to tracking down the damn electrical problems

... in the meantime i need to get it drivable and was wondering if anyone knew where i would get a headlight/ radiator rack, or whatever its called. cuz mine has kinda rusted away and i need to get the radiator firmly attached so its not flyin around anymore.

it will be easier. Just remember that the front bumper bolts keep the front cross member in, so you need to support the front of the engine. This is for both the MK2 and MK3
