Head gasket refresh, maybe a little light polishing and some port matching. Check and maybe declag the exhaust primaries, do something similar to the plastic plenium. Check the connections to the dry sump system, new drive belts and timing belt, tidy up the wiring, remove the wiper mechanism, rebush the steering column, new discs and front wheel bearings, de-rust - treat and repaint the chassis members where the powder coating is coming off......

But tomorrow (now today) I might just think about why I bought the car in the first place. :cheers

Like the Doune avatar. They just need to make the track a bit narrower and throw in a few more hard objects to hit to make it more interesting :)

Fat feet & legs are something I don't have forunately.

As for the cockpit - I prefer the term "interference fit"
