Build finished! - Hungarian MNR
Well well! After 29 build days (spread over 9 months total) the car is finished! Famous last words...
Wheel alignment is done, engine mapping will be done tomorrow hopefully, but is running OK as is. We had two brief test runs in the car and it is
brilliant!
Here are a couple of interesting features and pics:
The indicators are home made, the electronics created by a friend. One push gives three flashes, a longer push 10 flashes and a 2 sec. push a constant
falshing until canceled. Both buttons pressed give hazards.
 
After the rain
 
Steering wheel and indicators
The Quaife reverse unit lever was way too forward. Plus reverse meant pushing forward - not logical. So we lengthened the lever, now it's
reachable strapped in and the action is the logical way around.
 
Reverse lever
Unfortunately I don't have a picture with the whole finished car, but will take one soon! Until then, here is an older picture:
 
Before the first test run
And more importantly, we will be heading for the Hungaroring on Wednesday to test the car on track!!
We will take it easy, checking nuts and bolts after short runs and take it slowly at the beginning, but as the car is not registered yet, what better
way to test drive it?
I will keep you updated later this week!

cracking looking build there mate but can't help but notice that in the first picture the seems to be some kind of white spatter all over the
tunnel, dash, seats, cassis rail, and your helmet.
not sure about SVA regulations over there either but that steering wheel will fail SVA as its not padded,
where are your front wheel arches?
