Thanks for that its only tacked in at the moment so not a big issue.

I have worked out that I am seriously crap at updating you ll on my build but I have been cracking on in the last 7 months. I did lose a few photos in a phone fail but i still have a few to share.

I could have spent the 3 hours more productively but I wanted it rolling and steering, which it is, My next job now just has to be the fuel system so I can then plug in the loom and fire her up.

What body work are you using? I am just playing with hand brake cable routing at the moment but really want to mount column but waiting for body work, how have you run your column over top of pedal box area?

cracking work mate
