![]() Afternoon men,
Not much movement on the roadster, work and all that. Won’t be doing any this weekend as I am currently in Weymouth for two weeks with work. Living the dream! Cheers Ginge

I now have my MT75 hybrid box sorted and have today made the last of the transfer tubes for the inlet manifold. Just need to hire a TIG welder to glue all the bits together. A webshite update is imminent

![]() Measuerd up the engine bay and engine box. Tried fitting the engine in the bay but as the unit I was using still has the front diff fitted it was never going to sit in place. but the overall length from the gearbox mount to the front pully is ~116cm and that fits ok in the space by my calcs.
Also trial fitted one set of rear bones. And cleaned up a section of the chassis and sprayed it ready for doing the floor..... TT

![]() Spent a couple of evenings and today on the car. Brake and fuel lines are now run throughout the car and riveted in. Bought an air/hydraulic riveter (one of the cheap ones) and it is a fantastic time and energy saver - makes riveting fun
