These are separate views of the same evidence. Frequency alone does not establish a fix, and these counts must not be added together.

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

Really strange but looking to trade for another Bentley flying cloud, or another mustang or Camaro from the 60's. Bought the car to share with my father for DE events it is to slow for me to enjoy and a little to fast for him. Going back to a single seat car at some point. 25,500$ cash would let me get a decent Bentley Cloud with a swap locally.
Street legal, CA Registration with SB100 lifetime smog exemption. This car has already brought miles of great adventures to its owners, and has proven to be a fast, fun and reliable car for use both on track and the street.
Originally built in 2001 by legendary Factory Five builder Gary Cheney for competition in the FFR Challenge Series and racing events in the Northeast. Multiple championship winning car and need new race car log book. Championships include:
2002, 2003 COM PA Champion
2003 3rd Place FFR Nationals
Built to the original spec for the FFR Challenge Series, and comes with a Ford 5.0 liter 302 engine, T5 transmission, Cobra brakes with drilled/slotted rotors. 22 Gallon fuel cell, Kirkey race seats for driver and passenger, driver seat mounted on slider, 5-point harnesses, quick release pins for hood and nose sections, truck mounted with dzus fasteners for ease of access at the track, running on Toyo 275/40 x17 full tread tires. Would need the following items to bring up to current Challenge Series specs: engine top end upgrades, (2600$ +80hp) and fuel cell bladder.
Runs and drivers great, and has been primarily used a street car and DE events with me. Would be great for road trips with the local Cobra Clubs. Needs nothing for continued years of enjoyment on the street. Due to stripped interior up to 6' 6 owner can fit ans still be comfortable, will still pass SCCA NASA broomstick test with cage. Biggest guy to drive it so far has been 310lb's and 6 3', size 14 feet. This is the only way to fly if you are a bigger guy and want acobra.
Gets a solid 20-22 mpg on the freeway and with ~250 rwhp and 1920 lb's of car on slicks it is a solid 12 second street car all day, with the head package and drag tires will be low 11's and still be usable for DE or any track day that you can attend.
I'm not sure about Australia, but we have a lot of services over here in the states that refinish headlights for a pretty reasonable cost. A local body shop in my area offers the service, so you might try a body shop or detailing shop.
Sand off all the clear coat starting with 320 grit dry (which will get if all off quickly), then move to 800, 1200 and then 2000 wet sanding till the surface looks milky and all the scratches are 2000 grit ones only. Sprey with 2K clear coat, two wet coats. Let dry properly and wet sand again with 1200, then 2000 and then polish with cutting compound and polish and they will look like new. Did my wife's BMW last weekend as a dry run for my car. Very pleased with the results.
From 2000 grit the clear coat converts it to perfectly transparent, its great fun.
Stateside, there are any number of DIY kits for refinishing your headlight covers. Complete kits come with both the polish (to take the old, yellowed clearcoat off) and protectant to re-protect the covers. What I've heard is that the raw covers, unprotected, will weather and get cloudy again within a few months.
Complete kits sell for about $25 in the US. You'll need to research options in Oz. Good luck.
Meguiar's sells a headlamp refinishing kit that includes a brush (used in a power drill) and Scratch X (liquid abrasive/polish). Works really well also. When you're satisfied with refinishing your lights, put a clear protective cover over it, like 3M Cleartastic. I did that to my wife's car and it hasn't re-clouded one bit in over a year.
We offer a kit that includes everything you need to restore the look of your headlights. It is also advised that you protect them after you restore the look. For more information

Lots of lookers not a lot of people who understand that its a track car first and slightly street legal second. IE don't drive down from LA and ask me why there is no carpet.
Still avaliable open to a trade of course, can throw in a 25K mile 1957 97 point restored Cadillac Coupe de Ville for a good Gen II corvette as well if anybody is interested.
