Slow progress!
Snap-off - 17/4/08 at 05:24 PM

Hi guys, i'm spending more time changing nappies that working on the car at the moment. Just a quick update on my progress although the pics don't look that much different from the last update.

Up's since last time :

Front wings/brackets.
Most SVA covers for front suspension.
Side vent grille.
Rear filler cap etc.
Bled brakes.
Rear view mirror.
Sorted exhaust bracket.

Downs since last time :

Leak in crappy radiator bought from ebay.
Back top panel was cut too neat and started to warp in the sun. (hopefully fixed)
Getting frustrated with not being able to drive it!

Just got the steering rack lock limits to sort ( got some ally to machine when I get back to work for this), adjust camber for self centre, and a few other bits and bobs.

Just take it down the local runway for a little shakedown

Yes, I have booked my time on the runway but had to make a sump/bottom edge mockup out of wood to see if i could get the car out of my steep drive. i think it will make it
Also, it never had any working brakes
