just a wee update...
got the engine sealed today.... ;D
seat got modified for the crotch belt.
belts have been fitted
got the driveshaft cover in
took the body,bonnet and wing off the other day and decided to repaint it cos im not a fan of purple....not as a single colour anyway...
i must say that i am loving the current paint job, not bad seeing as i only had a couple of sample pots and randomly mixed them to get a half decent colour...
next on the list is to get some numbers for it and still have some more paint to lay down then the body can go back on...
will put the head back on this week and get it fired up to make sure shes all honky dorey...
then ill need to tackle the brakes and king pins...and thats close to about it...
YAY

john was saying hes only tagged a couple of motors..
no one refreshing??? or still waiting?
as for photos theyll have to wait, our computer wont download the latest software etc cos its old, so imageshack and the likes wont accept any photos from our computer...
so, until practice, if i make it there...

hope to be there if the weather turns it on for us and if the track is ready...
got the head back on the stocky and manifold etc..
fired right up today...am very pleased that i know that i can confidently do a headgasket on my own car...doesnt appear to have any leaks anywhere, yet...
tested the clutch and it still works, extra bonus points there..
also stopped in at the signwriters near home and have my numbers in the making..
should be ready once i finish painting the panels, yes, still painting panels....creativity takes time....hopefully it works out as well as i imagined..
have also sorted out a transponder....cheers to macgor for putting the ad up for me, worked a treat, within the hour of it being up i have a transponder on its way to me...
so the list is getting smaller as time is getting shorter..
