Lots of bodywork! And a vid of it starting

Hi guys, A fair bit more progress- the chassis is finished and has been off to the powdercoaters; And the bodywork has begun. I've also decided to smooth the dash and go with a single digidash display: And remake the bonnet hinges: . It has been started!

So I've been working on the controls and internals for a little bit now. I Started by mounting the gear lever/handbrake mechanism... Then looked at the pedal box and bulkhead (the one i wasnt planning to make but had to because the rorty plans were wrong! The Firewall - Made from 3mm...

Hi guys, The engine is an aqj engine, it's one of the 340hp 40v engines from an audi s6. Belt driven, high compression. Saying that, the intention is to bolt A td07 turbo to it for 6-8psi boost......

Thanks Jim! You're welcome to come build me one! I'll even supply tea and biscuits. A little more progress. Firstly I realised I hadn't shown you pictures of the shell....here she is: Tonight I stripped it and dropped out the floor- it's been 40 years since the floor was removed, so I was...

A quick update- I've mounted the front suspension, and started playing with making the rear uprights. I think the pics are self explanatory!

Haha! It's not something I use often, I gave two grinders on the go. Only issue is every now and then there's a little cut needed that you can't quite reach with a grinder.... So out comes ol' faithful! Thanks for your kind words fella, it's good encouragement!
