    The car is sensational, simply another level. Full kudos for the commitment, and resources.

    So has it been modded to give you a laugh on the weekend or do you track it? Any quarter mile times and whatnot?

    I'm sure there's a dirty joke somewhere in that comment

    With that in mind I'm glad there was no mention of polishing pipes

    Not much of an update as I've been tackling the rewiring but here's a few pics of where I've got to.

    Lots of this tape has been used


    Drivers side from this



    To this





    Just waiting for my Rivnut tool and some alloy Pclips to arrive to secure the loom to the inner wing.

    Passenger side from this



    To this



    Then









    I have a couple more wires to solder then I can tape it all up and secure to the body which I hope to do on Friday night.

    These also turned up but haven't even bothered opening the box yet as I want to sent the springs off to be powder coated as you will have seen in the above images.

    KMAC Adjustable Top Mounts.


    Awaiting some VibraTechnics engine mounts to arrive and the cars booked in for engine bay and front end respray in April.

    Holy crap, that gives me cold sweats just looking at that wiring. And that god awful tape that everybody hates getting off.

    Kudos for the effort, seriously unreal.

    Most people are scared of wires but its not that bad.
    That tape is great stuff but I agree getting it off is another story.

    Looks like a lot of work.

    I agree wiring is not that hard, cutting a wire extending it and soldering it back together is not brain surgery.

    Looking forward to seeing how it turns out, I will do this when I live somewhere with a garage
    MODS- TOO MANY

    It's no 5 minute job that's for sure but easy as you said above.
