Its coming along now! Them lights look ridiculously bright, what ones are they?
Cant wait to see some footage of it when its set up properly!

Might be wrong but possibly angel eyes?

No just iridium headlights on main beam.
I just need to stick on the number plates and arches and then it's good to go get mot'd

Woohoo

Wipers - done






And yes it was abit of a squeeze getting the motor inbetween the bracing! The wiper linkage needed to shortened and flared as the motor now sits closer to the first wiper wheel.

Can't remember if you're still using the standard Sierra rear axle set up, and if you are, an easy way to get more camber on the back is to take out the bolts which hold the drive shafts in, and put a washer behind the back plate. A bit crude but does the job

Kmol. Do you have a link to those invisible wiper arms? need to get me some of these.... 

 

Looking good though

any more progress on this beast???

[kmol468]

Lights




Arches have been fitted


And i thought it looked impressively wide under the cover!


Swapped the water for antifreeze and fitted number plates.
I just have to wire the brake lights up and then it's off to the mot tester with imaginary wipers fitted!

Excellent work   The wide arches do come in useful

This gives me funny feelings in my trousers

This is just badass man... job well done

[kmol468]

Like with most things, time for the better of me yesterday and I wasn't able to drive it.
But it's practically there.
I'm finding that I'm getting jobs done but I can see a huge number of things that need refinement.

This thing is amazing.

I really hope to see it at a show one day

[SAL 821X]

Hahaha love how the arches are so wide you can use them to stand you cuppa on. 

 

Cannot imagine what it will be like see that thing baring down on you in your rear view mirror!!!!!
