Don't worry. It isn't something I let him do. I explained to him that he should be getting into it from the drivers side!! He soon runs a mile if you started it as he doesn't like the noise.

That looks very smart indeed, can I ask where you sourced the parts from?

The parts were all bits we have had at work for a long time. Thought I would make some use of them, rather than have them gathering dust!!

Bending the tube took a bit of time but we got there in the end. Bought the silencer & RS turbo manifold on ebay. Exhaust cost about £50 for the whole lot so not to bad.

Gus keeps asking me for things to do John but Im running out of ideas. Other than the wing stays I think we have done all the fabricating.
Chassis is coming on ok. Since you saw it I have fitted all the wishbones, brakes, filled diff, gearbox, & engine with oil, done the exhaust mounting & exhaust.

Bit of wiring and it would start & drive, but I'm leaving the wiring until I have fitted some of the bodywork once I get it.

Cheers

Dave
