    Another few nights work and it's starting to look more like a car, although progress is starting to slow down as it's all the fiddly/time consuming jobs that are left !!


    Making and fitting Brake Pipes




    Feed and Return Teflon lined Aeroquip Fuel lines








    Originally fabricate for a Prodrive WRC Impreza - Brand new, pressure tested and still had FIA 'Funny Fuel' residue in the lines !!!




    Routing from Tank to Bulkhead fittings

    awsome work, what engine spec are you doing?
    Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright
