The car has lost some more weight over the Christmas period, i took the dash out of the car today, and what a pain in the ass that was lol. I'm planning on making a switch panel tommorow. I'll get some pics asap.

I have also put some newish lights on the car and new bumpers. theres a rear strut brace been fitted aswell.

On a bad note, the starter motors bolloxed and a wing mirror got smashed off by some friendly chavs, all this will be sorted in the next year :lol:

the rear panel is a bit of a botch until i can weld the new one one lol.

the steering column is a scrap yard special that cost me 20quid, its got a steering lock, and ignition barrel and key. And best of all it came with no steering wheel on it :D

how did you go about fitting the rear brace, is it bolted straight through the turrets?

yeah the rear brace has been fitted by drilling the rear turrets.
