Nice car but someones nicked your bumpers!
Thanks for the extra info. I'm not overly fussed about the fuel economy or how easy it is to change gear (although the P6 gear change seems quite short for such and old design) this box will be going into a show car and will only be driven to and from shows and the occasional workshop. My main concern was how obtainable a clutch kit would be if different to the 5 speed and whether it was actually usable with a 300hp V8 and with a manta diff. I've also learnt that I've got to modify my transmission tunnel to fit the 5 speed which I really wanted to avoid
