Journal: Mark Summers's Journal

After years of wishing for a British sports car, I finally found myself in a position to get one. This B has undergone a nice cosmetic restoration: new paint, carpet, detailing, etc. I'm ready to start learning and to start making this one "mine."

First tasks: Pulled off the old valve cover, sanded and repainted, losing the funky maroon paint. I also got rid of the stock air cleaners and installed a K&N kit.

Next item: the dash center panel is old and tired. Pulled off the vinyl covering. Have cut and installed a carbon fiber face to the panel and new switches. Am now working on a walnut trim surround for the console. Will post pics when finished.
