chassis nearly finished,wishbones done, bodywork getting there ,the new arrival putting a hold on things? YES

really enjoyed designing my "one-off" grill just waiting for it to be authorised to avoid copyrights then get it made.

Everything been on hold for many months now but been collecting bits and bobs from time to time. Been building the bargain garage I aquired which is almost done then I can get back on with things. I am at rolling chassis stage using dummy shocks. Engine fitted but may need adjusting due to clearance issues.... Need to consult my build guru... Fuel tank, roll bar kit, some body panels, headlights and brackets, wiring and radiator all ready to get fettled and fitted. Good luck to everyone else with their builds

Chassis almost ready (98% finished). Front and rear wishbones, wheels, steering wheel, seats, rollbar are fitted to the chassis.
Nosecone, bonnet, rear wings and scuttle from SSC ready to fit !
Bought a raceline sump for my zetec for more ground clearance, and now i'm waiting for the engine mounts, cat and exhaust from Kitspares.
So probably next weekend i can fit the engine, and do the last welding thats needed and fit the drive shaft.
One week ago i bought on Ebay a K3 ECU from Emerald.
If everything fits, the chassis shall be powdercoated. After that...

So far the status of my build.

After my fallout with SFRO in sweden I lost the will to continue with my build & felt like I had to take a break so I built this recumbent trike using my old mountainbike as a doner DSC00661.jpgDSC00662.jpg.
This gave me a good booster & i´m now back on track with my roadster build & will post som pics soon,if everything goes as planed i hope to be driving next summer.
cheers
