Hopefully I will get the cage bolted in tonight

Unfortunately I haven't been able to weigh it so I'm going to wait till its all together then take it somewhere to be corner weighted and get the exact weight.

Engine will be next winters job. Should be 16v turbo for next year

Hopeing to get it back together for next month as a a few fronds are taking ther subarus down to York for a run what ya brung

I love the colour combo. If my GCSE art serves me correctly, blue and orange are complimentary colours.
