IVA Passed today
Well after some minor drama with water leaks and air locks last night the car was loaded onto a trailer ready for the trip to VOSA this morning for an
8am inspection, Ian the tester was great allowing me to add little bits of trim and zip ties as required (not alot to be honest) before we hit a
couple of potentially disaterous snags, my wing stays were too close to the brake caliper unions, easily sorted with the loan of a grinder from a
nearby welding firm and the one i thought would stop us dead was the head lamps i brought from Rally Design were dipping to the wrong side! no
adjustment on the lamps left me sunk until the tester said he was going for lunch and if I could have them sorted before he got back then the car
would pass.
frantic post on Locostbuilders yielded nothing, Kit parts direct were the perfect solution however they are closed thursdays!! a call to Mike of Road
Runner Racing yielded a pair of loan lamps! Top Geezer! Over I went collected them and fitted them intime for a clean bill of health! 1 Pass
sheet!.
Id like to say that I couldnt have finished my build without the help of Andy and Noel @ Saturn and the keen eye (and edge trim) Of HandyAndy. Thanks
Guys
 
Front Finished

Nice one! Good to see a first time pass.
Where did the lights come from? Seems to have been a few like that recently.
