Hi again guys, time for some more (yawn...) questions!

1) do you guys have metal strips holding the carpets down along the 
sills?

2) does you boot lock, lock? (the new locks I have seem to rely on a 
striker plate turning 90degrees away from the push part of the lock, 
which works for the doors but not the boot!

3) Does your car have an anti roll bar at the front - this question 
for those with the metal framed Ford V6 in particular?

4) any advice on an exhaust system? are there tubular manifolds 
available?

5) Any need/availability of a sumjo guard (don't all answer this at 
once! - I've seen past comments about ground clearance!)

6) Have you got a Amp meter or volt meter in your car? I've just 
replaced the wiring loom and the new loom did not have wiring for my 
amp meter since it is now wired for a alternator which should be 
better for the power! this means I can either leave it in the dash 
not functioning or fit a volt meter (battery condition). I guess if 
you guys are still running original looms then you've probably still 
got amp meters!

ok that should do for now - if you've not gathered I've got the week 
off to work on the car! so far the wiring is all in, and the trim is 
two rear panels off being completed! it looks like a car again! I 
sat in it for the first time in 6 years and am wondering now how I 
can press the pedals!!!

cheers guys

Ashley
