ok then some more pics and a big update its about 2 or 3 weeks work.

Well i have not done much this weekend as i could not be arsed after having had a mad week at work. I got out there today and had a play about and got the flywheel on.

And made this.

ok then readers I have a small update for you.

It has just dawned on me that I only have 4 weeks to my dead line at brooklands.

I was working on saturday so I only had sunday was hoping to get the eng in this weekend but the rain stopped that :thumbsup:/
this is as far as I got
Posted Image

But every cloud has a silver lining and all that, as I sat in the shed and redone the front loom. I am happy with how its ended up as its a lot lighter now.

A box came from MED today:-D and when i found out it was here I knocked off work to get started .

Posted Image

and i had a play with the oil tee piece, this is what i have came up with.

Posted Image

Ok when i got home from work i put in an hr on the car, I got the dash almost done and i am happy with how it looks.

Posted Image

ok then 2 pics of yesterdays work i have loads of room in there. I have no pics of todays work as i was to dark. I got all the fuel lines in.

OMG! How have i never looked at this thread before.... :thumbsup:

Looks good love it, I want that engine.

Very good work can see the effort put in, all i can say is dont be rushing to meet deadlines. Or do rush but dont cut corners.

stunning .. lovely car.
i think i love the fact more that you stuck with the same car and weren't persuaded to part with it ...

your dedication and motivation are amazing.

well done. keep up the excellent work..
