Made some space for the radiator using a cut off wheel.


What radiator is this?

Cheap cinquecento aftermarket one.

Replaced my wiper stalk. Now I have functioning wipers, but they still are sooooo slow.

Apply something like RainX or similar to your windscreen...when you need to use your wipers the coating helps!

Yeah bud I also used motorbike radiator fans and the smallest alternator I could find. Cars in the workshop so don’t have access. This is the best I could find.

Might be worth servicing the motor and remove and check the wheel boxes. The shafts often seize up causing slow movement.

Nice simple job too and makes such a pleasing difference

Got my Elise seats nicely positioned for angle by making sub frames from ally angle. Just need to adjust drivers side for height.
Windows in. Pick up rear screen-that was hard
