Build cost.... seems to be spending more on tools than car bits at the moment! (they will be handy in the future though).
Car iva'd and passed 15/08/2014. Finished weight 572kg.

Default Roll bar
I spent a little more time on Sunday working on my car. My mate came around with his tig welder so managed to get the roll bar stays welded in.



Now I just need to add a bit of paint.

I have also put in the passenger seat supports so I can bolt the seat in.

I hope so Kev....

I am at the point where everything works. I Just need to attach it under the bodywork (and hide 2 miles of wire under the scuttle!!)

Im still trying to put off the water pump as the timing belt needs to come off. I think I will hire a trailer and get a garage to do that bit at the end. I can get it done all in for 200 quid by AK motorsports in rowlands gill. They also have lots of industrial estate roads nearby.(private) Handy for testing it.

I can also paint my garage while its away.

David.

ps I printed the forms for IVA out ages ago lol. Have you got your test date yet???
