Check condition of brake pipes and A/C pipes, much easier to replace with engine out

Belt guard/pulley. Radiator support panel refresh/slam panel. Wiring to coil packs. Engine/box mountings? Rocker cover refresh/gasket. Gear lever linkages/the bushings that degrade (and those at base of gearlever from underneath). Oil cooler pipework/oil cooler
Always seem to have too many 20VT's to count......

Perhaps the new Inspector Morse will drive one making them popular collector's cars. The Duchess of Cambridge spotted driving one in Tesco's (sorry Waitrose) car park? Now there is an idea - where do we advertise our Coupes for FREE celebrity/royalty rides..?
