        Today saw the lights, bumper bar, and nosecone cleaned up and refitted.

        Along with some painting under the inner wings to cover where I'd welded up a load of unneccesary holes from previous engine/ignition combinations.

        The interior also got partly cleaned and refitted, I've got to cut and modify the carpet and centre console before I can put the front seats in.

        Here's a couple to keep the thread updated :

        Once again apologies for the crap iPhone pics





        Cheers Rob.

            Very nice job. Looks really well in the 7.5s

            Did you have to roll the arches for the 7.5s and would they clear when lowered 2 inches?

              It's on 7" wheels now

              The arches have all been rolled, and the rear axle narrowed so the 7.5" wheels that were on it before would fit, but Andy has decided to go for 7" wheels now with 195/45 tyres instead of the stretched 175/50 tyres on the 7.5" wheels

                        Yes, just a bit !

                        It's sure not to be the last time either

                        This car had been apart and not run more than any other I've come across
                        Cheers Rob.

                            It's on the floor at last (at least the rear wheels are )

                            Still no engine or gearbox fitted, as the engine is on the dyno still

                            I've got today and wednesday, then the car is off to the NEC

                            Wish me luck

                            Interior will be finished today apart from the seats and column (can't fit that until the engine is in)

                            The entire car has been treated to a Meguires clay bar, and then two coats of Autoglym high definition wax, the wheels have had Autoglym alloy wheel sealant applied, and all the vinyl and plastics have been treated with Autoglym vinyl and rubber care - it looks the bollocks


                            Cheers Rob.
