Oooosh....looking super smart there! What's your aim for completion Craig?
My Rebuild
They're over there with their new toys. Someone brought them in. No idea who bought them though.....
Very nice work pal.
He looks really really nice, well done!!!
Looks stunning!
Looks neat. You might find those disks designed to work best swapping left with right
Thanks, as much planning as I did it wont have been enough. Paint is getting chipped and holes are being drilled, but its minor.Originally Posted by Iain
Thanks, I have no date in mind for completion, but it would be nice to get a shakedown session booked for a few months time, something to aim for I suppose.
Thankyou very much. I'm really pleased with how smoothly it has gone together so far.
Cheers BRG, I did think that might be the case when I posted the pic, but to be honest they will be coming off a few more times yet anyway as I'm wanting some spigot rings made up to centre them, and need to plumb the callipers in.
They were nearly the last thing to go on at around 12pm Friday night. I even had to drive home to get the other one as I only had 1 down the unit, but was hell bent on getting it on the floor before the morning.
I also noticed the strap on the N/S/F wheel was a bit low, but it held fine and in my defence I was mighty tired.

Fairly cracking on with this mate. It looks awesome great work
WOW, that will look awesome when its all built back up! Love it mate
I did a bit last week whilst waiting for the exhaust to be made, gave a fine skim of stopper to the doors, then dropped them off at the body-shop with the wings and bonnet. They should be done by now, but I haven't been in to check.
Flatted off the fronts of the OZ's. Not a very pleasant job so didn't go to town on them
Bought new graphics and applied those. Again a job I don't want to do again any time soon.
Then got the tyres re-fitted and balanced up.
Then this morning had a call From Matt Simpson saying the car was ready for collection, so a quick check on Met-Weather and the forecast looked ok-ish, as long as I set off within the hour, so did just that.
Got it back safe and sound, even beat the rain by about 5 mins!
I genuinely couldn't be happier with it.
And my favourite....
Bumper will need a fair bit of trimming, but just what I wanted. He left the tailpipe about 1ft long too, so I can trim it to suit when its all fitted up.
