Just wondered if there is any merit (for the benefit mainly of new owners) in "established" Stag owners listing the changes and additions (apart from service & maintainance work) they have done to their Stags since owning it.
I have had mine for over 23 years now, and my car does look a little different now to when I 1st purchased it, both inside and outside and under the bonnet, and in my opinion runs better.
Using a copy of a Stag blueprint someone on here once kindly sent me, I have marked on it all the places on and in the car where I have made changes, and put an explanation of what the numbers mean below. Those in blue marked with an asterisk were requirements (in 2004) to get the car registered as a Classic Car (with an "H" for Historic prefix) on local Tenerife plates.
1 - Canarian registration plate*, 2 - New dipped beam headlights for driving on the right side of the road*,
3 - Twin Spotlights, 4 - Front Fog light, 5 - Pacet electric fan, 5A - Airhorns, 5B - Stag Logo on bonnet & boot,
6 - 80 Amp Battery, 7 - High output Alternator, 8 - Removable Battery Earth Key,
9 - Newtronic Electronic Ignition, 10 - PAS bracket "Studs" (in place of bolts), 11 - Alarm,
12 - Chassis no. stamped into bodywork*, 13 - Allycat Rallye Special Alloys,
14 - Pair of V8 badges, 15 - Dashcam, 16 - Reversing sensors display panel,
17 - Modern car stereo, 17A Sound Recorder (linked to bumper microphone),
17B -Starter Push button (alternative to ignition key start position), 17C - Airhorns Push button,
18 - Oil driven Oil Pressure Gauge, 19 - Ancilliary switch panel & switches (for extra lights etc.),
20 - Periscope overtaking mirror (RHD car requirement)*, 21 - Pair of stereo door speakers,
22 - Red/Gold side stripes (in place of black ones), 23 - Set of 4 Stag tan "overcarpets",
24 - Car Fire Extinguisher, 25 - Full Tonneau cover (alternative to using softop), 26 - US Cruise lights,
