Well done bud ....car is looking well good, fingers and toes crossed you get a "first timer"

Thanks guys, I knew that kill switch would cause some comments, its been built so that I can unbolt it for the iva where I will insert a plastic plug / plate over the hole. Should take all of 5 mins to do. I wanted to keep the Kill switch on for now as it saves me removing the bonnet each time to disconnect the battery. It's amazing how quick you can work through a snag list after building a whole car. I went over the rear tub section today checking all bolt lengths, clips, grommits etc and fabricated a cover plate for the fuel pump and filter. A few more bits to turn up from ebay to fit.

Do you require a tyre weld repair kit, / jack & spanner for the IVA?

Nope, you don't need anything like that on the car. Of course everyone takes tools along for the day as if he asks to see something, you have to gain access to it, or show photos.

That looks great, have you had a chance to smoke it round a track or disused carpark yet? Or is the trip to iva going to be its maiden voyage.
