You mean here Image

Paul the guy you bought the sills from knows more about the carbs and the Snoot engine in Darth than anyone I know, hence I've enlisted his help to get Darth up and running again. He already got Darth to start on the three year old petrol in the tank, more work is happening to get Darth back on the road.

For those not already aware I bought Darth and Half Darth to keep them in the club and off eBay.

My Sportshatch was in pieces in the workshop at work, no head, no exhaust, no carbs, no gearbox, no propshaft etc when the tech walked out a week before lockdown first happened. The workshop was due to be demolished two to thre emonths later. With Paul's help once the head refurb was done he and I (mostly him) put the car back together in time to drive it out with time to spare. He's a great source of knowledge and being a gardener these days this will be his quiet time of the year so I offered to pay him to get Darth running again :) Good for both of us!
