Also painted up the intercooler with some ceramic heat paint:
 

 
Built myself a dodgy little spray booth:

If it looks stupid and it works its not stupid...
 

For anyone removing studs I can't recommend this little tool enough. I had 3 rusted in studs. Tried WD40, freeze and release, blow torch, hammer (to shock some rust off), the double nut trick, cutting a flat head bit on the end and using a hammer drill. None of them worked, this little banger got all three off in about 30 mins with very little issues.

 
HFH and HFHOE done:

 

My coolest restoration part:
 

Another exciting update.
 
Put the new intercooler shroud in:

 
And changed the dizzy cap and rotor:

 

What's the tool called? Wouldn't mind looking into it.

And last night the shed had an over powering smell of fuel. Feared one of the lines i'd done on the tank must be loose. but it was pretty much the first hot day down here yesterday and the shed would have easily got to 50+ degrees. I filled the tank up to the neck on a cold day, so expansion got me...
 

Decided I'd clean up the headlights, but now that they are out I'm going to replace them
 

New semi-sealed lenses and Phillips X-treme Vision globes:
 

 
Intercooler with 9" fan installed (this was a nightmare to line up, took about 3 hours)

 

Some before and after photos of the headlights (with the old parkers still):

 
The view on the shed door comparison:

 
New parkers:

 
And did some porting on the manifold:
