Had to take pictures today for my insurance renewal to retain the agreed value, so thought I would post them up (can't believe she is now 2 years old):

Have to say that the VortX is one of the prettier kits (except from the climbing frame sized roll-bar... which I appreciate is like that for a reason! ).





It's Evolution Baby!

Mnr defo have the best looking roll cage although some are quiet large but a taller roll cage does offer better prospects when it comes to selling on time

Loving the way you've used the original instrument cluster.
How did you fix it to the rear of the dash panel?

Another question - how did you manage to get an '11' plate?

Cheers

The clocks took a fair few hours with a dremmel smoothing down the original shroud, so the dial surrounds remain. A frame out of ply surrounds the whole assembly using the original mounting points for the dials (plastic flanges) Then a piece of Perspex sits into the ply covering the dial faces, then bonded into place behind the dash. Easy if you say it quick enough. The dial faces were off eBay for about £25. I messed up with the temp gauge though. Always over reads so cannot be trusted. I've left it where it is because silkaflex is a bugger to get out. Simply mounted a Stack gauge to the roll cage on a separate temperature sender.
The '11' plate was a gift from Preston DVLA. Given to me on the day too, without any inspection. Took me by surprise really, but didn't complain.

Cheers

Lee

MNR VortX

Still the best looking nosecone I have seen, I even tried to replicate the look on my TR1KE nosecone :-)

Wish I had more time enjoying it :-(

I loved the colour so much I built my TR1KE the same colour scheme....











It's not that i'm lazy, it's that I just don't care.....
