Regardless of the quick fitment, those gaps are still great!


Cheers Jared !

Cheers buddy,

That's nice of you to say that, it's been a steep learning curve, but I've thoroughly enjoyed it !

You never know, I may end up with another project later down the line, i need to let my bank balance recover first though ;-)

Update,

Didn't get too much done today unfortunately, but progress is progress, I'll start with the bits and pieces purchased during the week.

I took full advantage of the sale Smiffys Bits had on Black Friday and purchased a few of the more expensive parts he has to offer. I also went to Minispares this morning and picked up a few nuts and bolts and some radiator overflow tube -

2ca9d1a6213e348d75ba714500815bb4_zpse1e1

Fitted the stainless caps onto the tower bolts -

e4292d838c5b8d17d10ddaae86deb585_zpsf64f

906f466d02bc7e4982329cf10687d494_zps1d75

Brake reservoir cover fitted -

a3c7e5b4d10ce39b245e90bd5486966a_zpsfd4f

Got my freshly rebuilt pedal box fitted, along with the accelerator pedal -

d80126279991ba4e4abb252fd4d81a11_zpsc414

With that in place the next job was to fit the servo assembly to the car, gasket in place -

1723afd9c96e06f252c97dd255823eaf_zpsf77d

Stainless plate added -

5b8af4c3403085ec6d2e544296ea80ad_zps7c16

And then the servo -

b305c97f2b91d61356534f31db6f7df6_zps0b97

Also fitted the new seat anchors -

27272b5e400a26ad39d2c9ab6da15dd2_zpscead

And Finally I fitted my stainless steering drop down braket I got from Kiddspeed a while ago -

7356346d5ea7264bc6eb43292245c26a_zps4785

That's all for today but if all goes to plan tomorrow I should be fitting my brake kit I got from minisport !
