Not now I’ve got the ride height set.

It’s pushed the top out again

I’ve been brake bleeding today after a disaster during the week.

I had the 2 copper washers on the front offside brake banjo the wrong way around and it leaked.

I’ve got all except one done now.

It got late and dark and It meant moving the car. I need to change the ride height on that corner so I’ll do that at the same time

I know, I know it’s been ages.

I’m kind of still plodding away.

Hopefully there’ll be more progress this year

The paint on the callipers looks great - but the pipe flange apertures less so - they look far too rough to seal against - do you have plans to clean them out or is it just the light?

I cleaned them up with a wire brush then blew them through.

They appear to have sealed well

Not sure how I've missed this build before but spent the last couple of days on and off reading through.
Great stuff

So, things are slowly bubbling away.

The car has a custom loom with fuse box in the dash shelf

Unfortunately time got the better of us but there was definitely a big leap forward today.

So, the custom loom is certainly taking a bit of doing.

However, we’re getting there.......

Another day and the wiring will be finished.
