Good idea with the pull cord handles, good to see you're still at it. :)

Superb stuff Ian, I'll have a poke around it when I pop over on Sunday.

Good work :)

Thats now back on the car. Been making up some brackets for my dash pannels. Will get pics of that when I put it all together.

I would of used Loctite 270 for the studs as it's a stronger hold, not sure if the 242 will hold the studs ok with all the tightening and loosening of the wheels nuts.

It's so close to being started I can smell it. It was nice to pop over and see the Nova in the flesh yesterday. As I said if you need a hand with anything just give me a bell.

looks good matey should be a light one with most off the door being cut away ect!!!

Nice one Harvey, thanks for popping over, nice to catch up and see the gleaming GTE :cool: :thumb:

Nice update mate, when you fitting the DTM's? lol

Also good call on fuel filter, and where you get the oil catch tank from, one thing about them, Ive often thought they need to fitted in the bay lower then the outlet on the rocker cover so the oil will not flow back? am i right, or does it get forced into the tank?
