Keep up the good work mate :)
Hey small update still waiting on Magnum motor sport getting my kit to me thats about 3 weeks late now :mad: :mad:
So i got the engine bay all prepped and painted and also the floor done to since I got fed up waiting on the kit
It now has suspension on it and is rolling on some old wheels
Going to make a start to the rebuild of the engine tomorrow. I have some new shells, bearings, thrust washers, all new gaskets, valve stem seals,+ high pressure oil pump bla bla bla so that will keep me busy till the kit is here.
I will get FJC to put some pics up as i didnt have a camera :thumb:
Wouldnt hold your breath for magnum. Been waiting 5 weeks now for some rear 1/4's. Was told they would be 3. Phoned them to chase the order and they said they would be another 3 week!!!:mad:
Yes i keep getting the same. When i orderd the kit it was a wed and was told it would be ready a week on friday. Now i keep getting excuses like ran out of glue to bond it together. I was told 9 days ago that it just had to be trimmed and boxed up then posted out and still im waitingQuote:

was you wanting to keep the standard arches?
engine bay looks like thats how it would from the factory!
what a beast colin. me and the turkish one are wantin passenger rides as soon as its done!! cal wants to buy it already! dont sell him it you know he will break it!!!
crackin looking job so far.
engine bay loooks sweet.
great project.
Yes does look wide on the front anyway as it is pug steel wheels they have massive offset. The rears dont stick out much as they are ford fwd offset. Thats what i was planning on building the car with till i bought some 345mm discs and brembos for the front so will need to go bigger now or get some smaller discsQuote:
