Some more pics and brief update.

[nova---chris]

Boxed in the dta loom and welded a plate over it. Only access now is from the plate we made to cover the hole for the heater motor. Made a small bracket to hold the ecu so it can be removed with ease for security purpose.

Wheels have been painted flat white now instead of that horrid pearl .
Under the car has been fully undersealed along with arches. toyed with going with the painted arches but there only gonna get black anyhow.

So now im waiting on my 2 bumpers and also need the brakes bleeding. fit the harnesses . Got tas spehrical top mounts to fit and need to adjust the camber correctly as well as suspension height. Made easy with the leda coil overs . Should be ready then for her maiden drive! Hmmmmm cant wait!!! Should be intresting.

Then its time to get the nitrous fitted once we know everything is nice and tight. :)

Not bad at all mate :D I've just been checkin the brake piping :wink:

[nova---chris]

Had to do the brake lines slightly different due to the rear hubs being discs and not the usual shoes ect.

The distance between the beam and the braided line was to short. hence we lost the right angle peices that took the fuel line down and through the car body in the back. Had to loop the pipe and spot weld the braided lines to the underneath of the car.
Not the best way i suppose but saved alot of messing about int he end matey.

Hope you got that parcel charles too. got that lead you needed int here

Anyhow thanks for all the good comments. possibly pv but wont be in a 100 percent finished state.

[Jim]

Just spotted some excess weight on it :o

The two brackets that the rear bench seat hooks on to, lol.

Look forward to seeing it at pv.

[nova---chris]

Cheers for the comments.
There are some rough edges ont he car (nowt to bad) Not after a show look. just purely a clean car thats gonna hold together round corners. But if it looks nice then thats a plus point.
Been long in the making so just glad to have it so close to finished.
Its hard work getting it done round 12 hour shifts at the moment.
Another week or 2 then its mot time i think. then ill perhaps insure it next month ready for some fun. Need to find out just how bad Xe's Supposedly handle. Mind you my driving might help it look extra bad lmao lmao
I keep telling myself im gonna take it easy at first. But i cant see that happening.

heres the track wheels that will be graced with inters. nice 15s. just need them to clear the v6 brakes. But i do have a set of spacers to which should help
