Thought I'd better give a little update
Things fixed:
Headgasket - new
Timing chain - new
Window demister (driver's side) - wasn't connected, window actually demists now
Dash lights - fuse blew
Wing mirror added (driver's side) - little chrome jobbie off a datsun ute
Car is running pretty good, doesn't use oil or water by the looks of things. Could do with a 5 speed though.

Love the colour! Similar to what I am painting mine.

Thanks
Alessandra wasn't too sure about it being orange to begin with, but I think she has had a change of heart.
Probably around the first time she walked out of a shopping mall and could spot the car in the carpark a mile away
WIN!!

I bought Alessandra a present the other day:

100_4590 (Small).jpg
I'm pretty sure she is the only girl she knows to get a gearbox as a present
It's actually the 5 speed I used to have in the 610; I sold it to a friend who put it in a ute. Unfortunately, he got crashed into so it got written off. So, a bit of cash later and it was mine/Alessandra's again

Somebody broke into the wagon during the early hours of this morning and set it on fire
I don't have any photos of it yet, but the damage is extensive. Luckily Alessandra has insurance. We are both gutted though, it really sucks that someone would do that on purpose

Yeah it really sucks. It seems like such a pointless thing to do as well. It's not like they stole it to sell or anything....just ruined it so now no one can use it.
