Hi all,
Well the car is all ready to start putting back together, and 75% of the parts are ready to bolt back on, Now Ive just sat and had a smoke with a pad of paper and wrote out a list from start to finish for putting back together. Now i'm interested to find out where other people started, as Ive never done anything like this before.
Cheers.

 

how far stripped down, we talking bare shell?

 

loom
brake and fuel lines fuel tank
suspension and brakes
interior
lights bumpers kit
engine and box
battery
key in ignition and fire up (hopefully!)

 

Full bare bare shell, all its got is glass in it.

 

This seems a less detail copy of my lists some order.

 

The first few don't really matter... im doing this right now if you have a peek at my resto, but essentially my list is...

Rear suspension
Brake and fuel lines with back brakes
fuel tank
engine loom
interior (so i can sort the internal loom out for alarm and ecu)
battery in AND ALARM ON (so some thieving twat doesn't take my nice shiny bits)
Engine, gearbox and front suspension in (in one hit). Its easier with the bumpers off.
Plug every thing in and install all underbonet jizz like heater box, wipers etc
Gear selector
Rad and intercooler
body kit, bumpers etc all back on
bleed brakes, fill up with fluids
piss about with ecu map
start.... hopefully.

Take a step back to think over all the bits you have forgotten, in my case spray the car.

Its the little details that take for ever, like im fitting studs to the hubs and getting the hubs zink coated etcetc. but i have to take a day off work to take them in, then pick them up, balancing a blue printing my bottom end is going to take a forever and then porting and rebuilding my head will probably take equally as long, not to mention having to wait for machining

Good luck buddy, cars looking good in your thread any how

Rob,
