thanks everyone, have not happened so much in just the last car but I have made some brackets and new around here the car, the engine is almost ready, which is good so I can start measuring the tubes and other things around it. some new pictures of the rear suspension which is fitted and new gear ratio to the gear lever. hope to be finished with most of the car before the New Year. i also get a rs500 rear upper wing,its away to paint for the moment.

I have no words to explain your work ... your car is just fantastic, i have not finished exploring the rest of the forum, but your 3dr is really adult 3dr in my humble opinion...

Bravo and all the best for the rest of the work!!!

Soz though when you said ring you meant Ring Spanner

Never knew they made such big Aero fittings.

do not use the original thermostat housing and waterpump, drive with electric waterpump and thermostat is connected to NIRA, so everything is electric now.
