Well done, I'm sure the inspector will get ten minutes in and realise he's wasting his time looking for faults and just pass it.

great that will concentrate the mind, it will soon be here. Good luck with it, not that you will need it with the quality of your build

Right, had a few weeks off the car due to one thing and the other but had a good day today

Got the springs back on the shocks and the ride height set roughly, it's getting corner weighted when it's finished

Everything on the rear tightened up, then got the rear tub fitted, the arches and the boot lid fitted



Well happy with it all to be honist, just need a few more black bolts



Pretty much all the wiring is finished and working now, just got to sort the front side repeaters, hopefully tomorrow's job

Sunday's progress

Locating pins finally fitted in the nose cone, I will get another shot when the bonnets next on



Side repeater wire extended, and hole drilled in arches, I just used a drill to twist two wires together, turned out quite neat



Wire tiger sealed to the underside of the arch, it will become clearer once the arches are back on the car I hope!

Front arches stone chipped and trim glued on



Side led repeaters



Shot of the engine bay as it's looking nice now

Well didn't get much done today, but I did roll her out of the garage for the first time and gave the garage a good clean out





See how tomorrow goes!!
