Well not much of a update .. But here's what I've got and what's in progress etc

Big wing and baffled sump .. As been sent off to be done.

Wheels ...I'm still waiting for .. Should be long now .

Sending some plastics for flocking for my rear strut brace set up

Rear 300mm and 4x4 callipers ... Sorted

I've bought a brand new gear knob and gaiter.... Brand new pedal rubbers

Brand new door seals and boot seal

Can't think of anything else I'm due a part from im after a 3dr rear beam and arms so I can send it off for 6degeee and then buy a diff to suit

Mat I think with the way you have gone at the rest of the car it would be a massive shame not to go balls deep on the engine bay

Or are you already doing it and I've missed something

My friend owns a powder coaters mate here in Sheffield... His work is top notch.. He always tells me the key to good coating is the prep work

Here's the tanks he did me there like glass
