This is coming on well. The skinny wheels make me laugh though!

Heds where did you get the front end from?

Front end was imported from HVR team in Slovenia or Slovakia can’t recall, cost more to transport it than for the item.

I love those little push button clasps to hold the clam on.

Wheels were a big surprise, I told the painter to do what he likes with them. Bit of a risk but I think it paid off.

Definitely.

The wheels, combined with the arches, front bumper/spoiler and the lovely touch of Mk.2 Astra GTE bonnet vents. It's working for me.

Oh, and that rear spoiler too :)

I got a bunch of fittings from Torques, real nice stuff for the price however I've not tried using them yet and if there's any doubt to there quality or ability I'll be shooting a message over to Goodridge or Brown & Miller.

I was having a read back at the earlier build stages, and noticed you were planning to use Torques stuff.

Just a note of caution; a friend of mine used their hose for his dry sump system plumbing, and found the oil pressure falling away as the engine was revved. The hose was collapsing inwards under vacuum, cue £5k engine rebuild.

Torques held their hands up and compensated him. Needless to say he's now using proper Goodridge hose.

Thanks for the Heds up mate, I’ll keep that in mind when I come to that part of the build. Cheers [emoji1360]
