Nice lol, brave man driving with no brakes, have you at least got the handbrake connected up?

Good job and a nice car

Looking good

Keep up the good work!

SNAP !!

23 months in



23 months rear

Was out to do the speedo calibration measurements prior to sending to Speedycables.

How do I bend the exhaust pipes to line them up ? Brute force ? I can do that

is it me or is the whole car lower on the drivers side. well done for driving it without brakes and still being alive to tell the tale.

all the copper lines are in...

i had russ make up flexi's but have changed the way i ran lines so need another one making..

was using the handbrake to slow down which was interesting....

could well be lower on o/s none of the geometry is set yet...

thats a job i'm not really looking forward too.

of course its lower on the drivers side, he hasnt put the passenger seat in yet

think the brakes were my first thing to get finalised

looking great well done

how did you get on over the weekend ed..

did you make much progress..

gave up early tonight as the worshop power kept going off,and wanted to get out while the power to electric gate was still on...

Just got a bit more electrics done, gauges/dashboard are done and the wires are all measured and cut for front and rear, Just got to do the engine now and all the fuse box. Started designing some of the fuse box bits also.
And i have drilled a few holes, waiting for some spacers for my drivers seat...
