Well i must say this car is now something els, it was imo a very nicely spec'd impressive performance car before you got it, but now its turning into a an extremely impressive all round car, it's looking like it's going to be a dam nice car now, an with the looks to back up what its performance is, i would o far as to say it's possibly going to be show condition when your finished mate, i love it!

looks amazing colin, have you a finish date yet or is it finished when its finished?

First race meeting is booked for 21st April (2012!!), so it needs to be ready for then.

I have absolutely no idea where I am going to find the time to do it though.......

Looks ace, the wheels set it off a treat! What's the thin bar going down the centre of the windscreen for?

I would have mentioned the bolts used on that bracket too, but since it's understood no point harping on about it. What I would suggest is running a complete seam down the 2 faces on that bracket to strengthen the existing 2 stitches.

I can see you getting into ride heights once it's all rebuilt & being run

Will be to reinforce a thin poly screen.

Car is looking awesome now Colin, and much more up to date!

Reinforcing for the plexi glass front screen..

looking good colin not sure if youve mentioned but are you going to get those brackets machines from one peice for the brakes???

Yes, it's very temporary, it will all be removed tomorrow to get the engine in.

I've got some new eccentric top mounts to go on as well to smarten things up.

For a later development I'm looking to replace the pedal box, the one that's in there works well but is quite heavy, and I'm tempted by this one;

At 1.8kg (without cylinders) it's exceptionally lightweight.
