Fow come you extended your wing on one side? :S

Looks good though . Especially the rear end repair, very clean.

When the front end was fitted the wing didn't meet up with the Apanel. So a 3/4" section was dropped in place to make it meet up.

Got to love non genuine

[Deathrow]

Thats frightening!

Is the front still straight? Good work sir!

[Tom Booth]

Update again....







Ready for it's trip...



Made it!

Then, a week later I got this in return...







An I spent today on the rebuild...





Rebuilt the doors, fitted the cage, petrol tanks painted as are a few bracket's etc and the rear lights are in and wired up.

[Tom Booth]

Fuel pump rewired, popped a switch inline for if I did have an accident and the inertia switch didn't work, and if I leave it in any seedy places I can just knock the fuel pump off so they can't really get very far. It'll stall them longer while the alarm's going. It looks really obvious were it is on the picture, but it's tucked nicely under my seat.



Wiring P-clipped up


Lights all work!



All the glass is in, bootlid is on too

[Tom Booth]

Braved putting the moustche ends on this time round, horrific job.


(Cmming off to be painted red, an I need to buy some arch trim....



Grommet for the fuel line has fallen through the bulkhead.....

[Tom Booth]

I have a new rear subframe, and a pair of rear adjustable camber/tracking brackets coming tomorrow hopefully Should be interesting to drive again with the rear end set up correct and the solid mounted front subby!

[Down&Out]

Bloody hell!!

You arent one to hang around...

Lovely work, glad to see it back again.

[analogue_radio]

Really really nice, something similar to how mine will look. Is that boot fg or metal?

[mighty mini jack]

Really liking the look of this one, you've done well

[Tom Booth]

The boot lids FG, tisn't toooo bad, fit is quite good but its very weak, can't really have things in the boot anymore, as last time I did it cracked the FG.

Recent progress....





(Same story on the offside too)



Wire brushed and re waxed all underneath



New subby, should be a hoot getting that to fit....





Knew I had the poly bushes for a rear subframe kicking about somewhere!

[Tom Booth]

Missed one...

[jack_marshall]

Did you end up having sills on it yoon?

[Tom Booth]

Did indeed Keith, makes you ask that?

[Tom Booth]

Had a good day in the garage today....





Back on all 4 again, new rear tyres on tuesday then I'll just be doing bits and bobs untill I'm ready to MOT. I'm hoping I can get it done for the weekend.
