Last night I thought I'd have a go at modifying/completely remaking the exhaust. Well impressed with myself after an hour an half sweating.







To be continued tonight!!:)

nice progress mate :) look forward to seeing your exhaust after you have done :) I love chooobs :p

Will do Micheal, I like pipes too! I thought that section of the exhaust was stainless but it just seems to be really good quality steel and welded fine with the gas and wire I used for the rest of the car.

Other than momentarily setting myself on fire....



I've been saving up for suspension and a proper exhaust silencer....

But in the meantime I welded up a temporary exhaust.....



When I'd finished it I couldn't stop laughing every time I looked at it. I'll keep the first bit and bin the rest. lol

This weekend I mounted the radiator...

MX5 rad fan fits perfectly to the mk2 polo radiator with slight modifications to it.

Nosecone brackets and homemade spring clips.





nose cone just slides on, it just needs drilling and some captive nuts for some round headed bolts coming up from underneath.

Great---Ive just been trying to think how to locate the nose cone--thanks:D

hi chris,

some good progress there, you might want to trim 25mm or so off each end of the tube youve used for the seatbelt anchorages so that it clears your rear tub.

Hi Nathan, not sure if I'm buying or making the rear tub yet. Don't suppose you could sell me a cheap scuttle to post over with that aeroscreen and mx5 track extensions you are doing for me?:)
