That looks amazing and I also love the way that you've extended the arches especially the front ones It's going to look stunning when it's finished.

List of things to do:

1) Fit copper brake lines, flexis and bleed brakes
2) Fit fuel lines, pump and filter - gravity fed pump at the mo, might go for a seperate swirl pot though.
3) Fit header tank, oil seperator, dizzy cap, leads
4) Wiring up dash, engine, all electrics like my twin 12s and 3 amps
5) Interior needs to be fitted
6) Bonnet needs painting and making brakets for locks
7) Make new rear bumper
8) Fit rear coilovers
9) Take it for a shakedown on the rollers then to cadwell
