first of all congrats on the wee baby girl , I trust mum and baby are doing well.
as always I really enjoy your updates and good to see the attention to detail, one wee thing on your track rod covers do they cover the nut as it is the nut corners that need to be covered.
Good luck with the sleepless nights and squeezing some time in the garage , enjoy both

Yes I am serious and don't call me Shirley.

.....sorry couldn't resist

Cheers guys!!! Yeah it's flying by, three weeks already!

Yeah the nuts have nice rads on the already

I've got a few hours here and there and got a bit more done, also reached a bit of a milestone

Made a bit of a bracket to mount my horns in a better position





A bracket to support the middle of the rear tub

Then today got the wheels on ready for the floor!





There was 8 of us and lifted it down a doddle, looks so much better on the floor!

Then my mate called by with his corner weight scales





And I'm so happy with the weight! I put everything in the car that's left to fit, only things missing is seats and harnesses, oh and a tank of fuel

Weight was 507kg so real happy with that, it's full of oil and coolant, so looking like 550kg max wet with the key in, no rubbish dry weights here!



Oh also the car was heavy on the left so should be nice when I get in, or heavy on the right!
