    Grille and brake activation rods begin to go in

    Drivers side doors going on and new seals and windows beginning to be fitted (doors are all early model items which contain no side intrusion bars to save weight)



    Both seat frames built and bolted in place, harnesses getting installed

    Co-driver side doors all fitted with new seals and glass (next month i'm changing them out for plexiglass)



    Engine slipped into place



    WIring the old girl up



    15 x 7" Ronal motor sport rims yet to be fitted with 225 x 50 x 15 Kumho V70A race tyres. Big thanks to Dom and Tim for the rims. The give the car a nice fat look.



    more pics to come as she nears completion. Entered in Targa west next week and still needs the windscreen and back hatch glass in, new suspension bolted and numerous body mouldings and tid bits to get it 100% those in WA should come watch Targa West in 7 days.
