Hi Devin, no reserve button. They don't have a long cranking cycle time(obviously due to there small size) hence it will have jumper battery assistance in the pits. Also orientation is not an issue. Battery man said keep it topped up by the battery charger. A.

While I wait for parts I've made a start on the wiring. As a whole it looks a bit daunting but once you break it down in it's separate components it's OK.( I have been reading the 300 page MS3PRo manual for some years now. I've just mounted most of the Electical components and will start to wire...

Udo, Andrew, Leon thanks for you words of encouragement. The O2 sensor is before the V band joint which has a very good seal so hopefully no issues there. Pulled the old(new) water pump and trial fitted the Electric setup. There's a little more to it than I hoped. Just ordered another dozen bits...

Should be fun, I'm colour blind.

Progress. The drivers door is fitted. Body is about 99% complete. Still need to make the front brake air ducts but I'm moving on to more fun stuff. Moved the front body Zeus clips to the bottom skirt lip as I didn't like the brackets jutting up from the tub. They were diffinently more...

F'in orsome, you must be stoked... ps That Bugatti 37' Atlantic at the Napier festival looked a show stopper.. Andrew

Leon, the Aero catches work great. Look forward to following the Ruapuna Scope Classic. Russel fun +. She's must be nice and reliable which helps with the enjoyment factor. The M20 is inching it's way forward. Front wing complete and I'm still working on the drivers door. End of Dec was a bit...

Russell and Udo, please post some pics vid of your cars in action. Neil, see post 213. Seagull... I got a little side tracked and am finishing off the front wing and splitter. Just waiting on some more rivets to attach splitter. Will turn up 2 rear bushings to support rear of the wing to body...

Left door and front left clip completed. Fitted AeroCatch 220-2000 bolt action latches. Been chipping away at the front wing ribs while the fibreglass filler and paint was drying. Construction will be the same as the rear wing and shape. Will add a splitter to the front of wing to match the side...

Leon, look forward to hearing how you go down South. And yes it would. The Pierburg CWA400 water pump and ICT remote mount water kit turned up. Nearly completed the remodelling of the front end. Final sand and hi build primer to go. Left door nearly complete. A.

Just cracking open a beer so time for an update. Formed the passenger side door to match the tub contour and glassed the inside. Also forming the rear of the front clip to align with the door. Will glass that tomorrow. Door gaps will be 2.5mm. Think about next steps - Installing Brake/Clutch...

Hi Mark, thanks for tagging along. You'll find all that information in my first post. I spoke to the aluminium oracle at Ullrich Aluminium here in Wellington all those years ago, whom recommended using the 5052 H34. Floor 2mm, Main beams 2.5mm, side pods 1.2, all the rest is either 1.2mm or...

The front clip is nearly complete. Onto the doors and massage the rear of the front clip to align up. Thought about building the front wing but I want the body work mess to end so am soldering on.

Keeping at it, albeit at a slow pace. Rear of the front clip are attached via 6 Zeus fasteners. The front splitters are ply with woven fibreglass mat wrap. Front tunnels all complete with inspection panel in tyre wells. Just attached the form panels to glass the front quarters back together...

It has Steve, summer was just flat out busy. Maintenance on vehicle's, toys, house etc a few trips here and there, hasnt been much time available for the M20. Still fitting the front clip on. Slow progress but progress. Currently on a bit of a roady over the ditch in Auss. Heading to Uluru and...

Not a whole bunch completed this month, must have worked to much….. made the front ground effect tunnels and glassing in. Don’t know if they’ll do much but I like them. Leon, no front roll hoop required this time... The scrutineer was happy and so was I. And to the GT40S community, have a...

Udo, what a stunning car you have built and should be very proud off. Now you can enjoy getting out on the track and developing the car. Have a great break. Andrew

A MSNZ scrutineer viewed the Roll hoop and I now have a MSNZ log book and the Roll Hoop is Homologated. Whew… So after that I polished up the hoop and shipped to Auckland to Bumpers Replacements NZ. To get Copper then Nickel plated. They were the only company that had baths physically big...

A little more done.. Completed the left side front support. The strut unbolts easy. Theres a aluminium bush at the front that can be offset to rise and fall 15mm if needed. Finally upgraded my TIG Defuser Lens Cup to a Furick. Wish I had thrown away the standard junk 10 years ago. Onto the...

Rear wing completed. Did solid countersunk rivets on the wing top (as many as I could) and Sealed countersunk on the underside. The 1/2” pivot rod lined up pretty well and wing is sitting at 10 degrees angle of attack on the lowest setting. The solid countersunk rivets are harder to install...
