Garage is in the process of a refurb... re-wired with new lighting, more plug sockets, walls have been painted, new tool board, and today fitted a new sound system in the garage... will paint the floor once the Orion is running, tommorrow hopefully finish off the jobs to the garage and carry on rebuilding the Orion... Cheers for the comments, gonna upload some pics now...

There has been progress on the Orion, sorry theres not been many updates
Not had time over the last few weeks really... Working 17 hour days
Fitted a new bathroom suite, the full works has had to be done thats nearly complete
So hopefully this weekend, next week, can really get stuck into it...

Track rod ends are fitted, racks painted up... New headlights are waiting to be fitted.
Engines gone up north for its build
I've got a Focus RS exhaust manifold, just need a inlet with injectors and a GT28 Turbo
Front seats have gone for the bolsters to be retrimmed so they match perfect, door cards have gone in aswell, as there blue and I want them grey, so the trimming has cost me Ł320 quid.
I've got a week off the end of May, got a mate coming round to chuck it back together quick time, still trying to source a Sunroof, still need 2 black clips.
No pics sorry
Also bought a R reg Escort for bits, flywheel, sunroof glass, clutch pedal etc... Was cheap so I had to get it lol

Big Thanks to NASH for sorting me out a cheap Saff steering wheel, was a little worn so thought I'd get it retrimmed.
Spoke to a mate at work (Stundies), he's spoke to another mate whos a trimmer at work. ( All Bentley workers )
A price was agreed, and 4 days later heres the finished article


Got my Saff wheel back today . . . 8) :mrgreen:
Looks mint

LOL, not as many Orions around though. Hopefully be cheaper to maintain than a Saff
Although it would have been cheaper to start off with a Saff

Cant wait to have it running, its gonna suprise a few peeps
