Not really Cal-Look but probably essential if I'm to start using the '58 more regularly again as I plan to do, I received some of Chip's LED rear lights (bulb replacements).

Well I have already started making my own stamp on my new '67

First up is a vintage US liscence plate surround, its just round the corner from a friends house so thought that was cool




And a nice NOS Talbot mirror arrived and the little plastic blanking plate for the hinge pin




And finally a crate of Fuchs arrived, 2x 6inch and 3x5.5, they need work but pretty solid. I am hoping to restore these myself, will see how I get on. I might keep the gas burners and put some slicks on them for some strip action.

I got a new lid as my old OMP Jet was out of spec being a BS -A/FR

Picked up a V2 Tour (open faced) Snell 2010 for £134 posted, it's pretty much a like-for like swap for the old one.

They are kind of...you send the lengths of shock you require and they make them up. There are two kinds, the ones i have which have a single 14 way adjuster. They also do a race spec one, which has separate adjustment for rebound and compression.

Looks really nice.. Which company makes them?
Do they also have a rear valance for 68- up models.
