Yep the colour I've chosen is a non metallic non flashy colour..... Not dull by any means though :cheese: It'll end up somewhere between Kawasaki green and lime green!! :grin: Not everyones taste but exactly what I've wanted right from the start (even managed to talk Pete around to it...... :tongue: )

Progress for this weekend more small things than anything else. Handbrake now all cabled and fitted, gear linkage cable all fitted engine bolted in properly front half of the roll cage bolted in properly throttle bodies fitted to engine and air filter fitted to the throttle bodies.

More details as more happens

He he he. after seeing the red carbon fibre with wide arches at L2B I decided I couldn't spray mine red, so I started thinking about leaving it the Tara Green (between apple and lime green) that it is at the moment, well it looks like that colour is now out the window! Next?!

Good to hear about the progress Ade.

I've only got one thing to say to you

Doors

any sign of them, is there anyone else who could supply the doors?

I've been pestering Rallysportreplicas as well, regarding there R1 fwd kit, he has supposedly sold 8 kits, but I can't even get a picture

If anyone out there has bought a kit any pictures?

Cheers
David
