ur project simply rocks

[azzgranty]

With the sun coming out this weekend I thought I would get the car out for a clean. Be a shame to
waste a good photo opportunity.









I recently made myself a bonnet for the car and have been busy fettling the dash as well.
It was quite nerve racking drilling into the carbon dash i've spent so much time getting right but
it had to be done sooner or later to fit all the switches.
Ive also made some end plates to tidy up the areas around the rollbar.
Im really looking forward to seeing the dash finished, still loads to do though.
Also got the bumper I made recently fitted to the car, its slightly different to normal bumpers,
you cant really see the difference in the pictures.

Makes such a difference seing the project in the light of day, makes me want to work harder
to get it running.
Will update soon, when I make some more progress...

Hi guys, thanks for your replies.
Currently tackling the wiring at the moment so no updates to put up really...just a spaghetti of wires...
Had the engine running last weekend, that was a big boost for my enthusiasm towards finishing, sounds pretty nice too.
Woke up the locals on a quiet sunday afternoon anyway...haha

Shaddy the linkages are pretty easy really if your still interested in making your own send me a pm and
ill show you how I made mine...the carbon cradle I could make a copy of also...Let me know...
