KS's car slowly getting there…


Well, Keith's been doing quite a bit to his '65 Looker over the last year or so, but work has got in the way of fun, and progress has slowed a little of late! The last job was reinstalling the 2332cc motor after fitting a Berg five-speed transmission and a remote fan-assisted oil cooler. The aim is to make this a car that can be driven – a true street car with enough performance to embarass the local Barry Boys in their Novas and Scoobies.

The next job is to shave the front turn signals and fit Lucas 488 indicators – the classic Cal Look touch – followed by a review of the interior. Not made a decision on the seats yet, but KS plans to change the stockers for something a little more sporty (and in black, too). Got various ideas in mind, but nothing's written in stone. Watch this space…
