Int & dash. The new seats are from a 1996 Nissan Micra. Covers made by a local trimmer using the old seat covers for patterns. Obviously not genuine 'tuck 'n' roll, but they look OK.

Seats & belts. Belts are from the rear of a Rover 827 therefore virtually unused; the stalks are from the rear of a Rover 400 (same catches as the 827 but the 827 stalks were too short) Nice to have inertia belts that are nice and discreet. I managed to change the covers over to match (they just unclip)

Under the hood, tired old Rover V8. I have a spare stripped, needs cleaning and rebuilding. Planned for this winter - bores and crank in very good condition. New rings and shells should do it - gotta be better than the present one.
