Re: Dave Colins RCR MK11 arives in UK

John,

There has not been much visible progress to report on yet. Basically the time has been spent going over everything and planning how to attack the build. Also Nick has been completeing other customer work he has had on before being able to dedicate a significant proportion of his time to the build.

It is expected that the transmission will be available shortly, along with a few other components that missed the shipment back in April, to allow a dummy fit of the engine and transmission in the chassis which will allow the bulkhead to be made and MK11 rear clip mounting frame to be fabricated. Following this I expect the body panels will then be correctly mounted.

As soon as there is some visible progress I will start a build thread to show these on.

Obviously Nick will have to make his own comments on the car as I can not put words in his mouth.

I am still pleased with my choice of the RCR product and do not regret the decision I made to go ahead with the car and the decision to get Nick to build it for me.

I should next be making the trip upto Derbyshire in early August, when I hope to be able to share some more news.

Regards

Dave
