I would say she's about 90% there. Got all the windows in, rear bumper, rest of the rear brake lines connected, handbrake cable, lower arms, tie bars, hubs and shafts.
Just needs the wiring tidied up in teh cabin, a set of seats and some front struts! :)
Looks very well done Dan... especially for a track car! However your last effort was all so very well done I had a good luck at trax a few years back before it got broke. I'll look forward to having a look round this one too. :)
Nick.
again thanks for the nice comments, it is coming out better than hoped but it is still a track car and is far from concourse.
Here are a few pics from todays work, pretty much same as yesterday with subtle differences as lee explained.......
First off got a normal windscreen in until i get the heated one, fitted the wiper and got the bonnet fixed properly with the pins etc and finished

Then fitted the rear bumper which sits nicely

another shot of the wheel sat in the arch nicely, shame i didnt go bigger on the tyre but a 225 shod in this type of rubber is more than enough

and one side on shot of the car sat on its stands awaiting the return of the front struts but looking alot more like it is nearly there

nice
Me really likes. Good to see you cracking on with it.
Good work :D
updates have been abit slack lately but the work is still plodding on. Major update pics due in the next week or so as i am aiming to have the car put on its first public display at the national day.
The inside is 99% done now and the externals are of a similar level. The last big part of the puzzle is the stickering which leads me to this........

my new toy, i spent weeks and weeks scouring all known places to find one and it was looking like i would have to mot the car or drive to the ends of the earth to view and buy a trailor. Then i found this brian james trailer within 5 miles of my house at a very good price :D
So early next week i will hitch it up to the landy i built for my boss and get then both home to be stickered up, as the landy will double up as my tow vehicle (bossman thinks its hilarious having my own matching service vehicle :wtf: )
Dude it looks awesome! Huge rear tyre/wheel.
Trailors tasty.
nice trailer you've bought there :thumb:
and what can i say about the car it looks like a top job done very well matey,
Cant wait to see it out on the track
here's a better pic of the landy, as you can see it has a few similar style features as the nova :D
