not much has gone on since last time, engine has gone and now fuel tank and old exhaust has also gone.
been shopping though, a nice new cobra race seat supporting 5 point harness, shocks for front and rear. new 15inch steering wheel with boss for quick release.
over weekend just gone i had washed inside n out and installed rear suspension, just waiting on front springs to arrive so i can put in the front shocks!!!!
it's slowly getting there

been a while since a update,
engine is a single point but is ok, not allowed to run oen so picked up a 1.2 carbed lump for 70 notes, minius gearbox which isn't bad as i've got a few of them.
roll cage has been done and welded in now
