Bit more progress
I've finally managed to attach my bonnet. I lined it up with gaffa tape to make sure it was held in place. I then made an aluminium template to help make sure I drilled the holes in the correct place.
 I've now added my iva friendly bonnet catches  I've also finally installed my rear arches  I'm now ready to put the interior in .ie carpet etc. here is one of the panels I have made.  I will put some more photos up soon David

I have the gillham bodykit. I am really chuffed with it, just make sure that you get the bonnet with the large scoop, I know that it's more expensive, but it gives a little more room above the engine, & looks smart. I have opened up the bonnet vent and meshed it off to help cooling.

Finished interior
Tonight I finished off my interior sort of...
All the carpets are in, the side panels that I covered in leatherette are in and I have also put in the kick strips on the sills and along the rear of aft bulkhead. I am really pleased with how it looks. I did try fitting a map pocket that I purchased from ebay buy this turned out to be the biggest heat of sh*t when I went to fix it and now in the bin. I still haven't put the steering column cover on as this can only go on once the dash has been re-fitted. This is something that I am going to do once I have finished my dash surround. Here is a photo. It quite hard to make everything out as its all black...  Ps I've also got a nicer steering wheel to go on at the last minute as well
