So, today the car went on its holidays

I went down to Race Tech to see Ricky and after a couple of hours of going round the car, the jobs list has grown but I think the end result will be even better as a result!

I've asked him to stick a few photos up if he gets chance but this was as I left the car with him:

No. Ricky is machining me a new stat housing. Mine was full of redundant take offs and as you say, where we agreed to sit the turbo, the top hose would have fouled!

Excited and nervous lol - going to be seriously tight to get the car built and down to the dyno in time. Absolutely snowed under with uni commitments etc. at the moment too

Really pleased with the work Ricky has done though, working my nuts off this week to pay his bill lol

Should be worth every penny though

It's looking very good, I wish I had half the skills needed to make things like that, very impreassive.

Snug with the slam panel too, looks like that'll have to go haha, after you spent all that time and effort 'precision' engineering it with the angry grinder too

Spud.

Hello Will,

few pics as promised for you.

For anyone interested, Will phoned me asking for some work doing on his Focus dash, then he popped down for a chat and fetched the dash with him. The work intended was to blank off a few holes, rebuild part of the dash which had been cut away slightly to much and some custom text which I suggested, as this is going to be a TA car it would make sense to get his company name out there as much as poss.

Anyway here we go........
