Check the GOLD beam mounts
Hold the beam spot on but were a twat to fit due to the locating holes in the focus shell being slightly smaller than a sierra.
Couple of the underneath with some paint on
Where the nice spanky new Bara diff is gonna live
And now it can be pushed around the workshop rather than leaning on the wall and getting in the way
Should hopefully have the rest of the body in paint in the next few weeks then the build can start proper

Popped in to Harass Andy and the lads today , He's up to his eyes in work as per, but we should have some primer on it in the next week 
Took a couple of pics while I was there of bits some folk are interested in
Where the YB's gonna live
Not sure if it'll pass the MOT with these mega professional fixings on the column
We're still having some issues with the steering lock, the front wheels are hitting the chassis legs on full lock (only at the front of the wheel though)
Any suggestions to reduce the lock would be welcome

HI mate i would say its a very simpol fing to sort out your stearing .if you take the gaters of both sides and look at the ball that holds rod end on you will see that when you tourn the wheel you will see that the ball hits a sholder so it can not go any more if you do this with the wheels on you will be abull to mesher the gap and have a spacer made that will stop the rack short of its full lock if you look at the photos you might under stand wot i mean if you dont have any way of getting any made were you are drop me a PM as i have a lave and a miller to hand

I wish
Its not even got paint on it yet!!
We've been faithfully promised that it'll be painted and ready to build in 3 weeks (promised it would be done in 8 weeks, 5 weeks ago if that makes sense)
Everythings there to get it built now, just need to sort some bespoke brake lines, sort the loom out and then bolt everything in
Its been blasted today, so should have some more progress pics soon, the joy of getting a job done properly, it takes fookin ages!!
PS If anyone can/knows a man who can come out and sort some brake lines out for us, drop me or Ian550 and PM

We have progress!!!
All he inside of the car has been sand blasted to make sure there's no corrosion anywhere, as Ian is the most paranoid person in the world when it comes to rot!
There's a few pics on Andy@Spraysystems's computer of the blasting being done but i've not copied them onto my comp yet.
Here's how it is today:
All sealed along every new and every factory weld, and everywhere that you can see is etch primed is fresh metal in the car!!
Looks stunning in the flesh, and once its gets rubbed down Andy's got all the rest of the paint ready to shoot the inside of the car, then he and the lads can get to work on all the little dings that the shell's acquired since it came home from AG Motorsport
More to follow soon hopefully!!
