Looks SUPERB Craig!! :thumbsup:

Fingers crossed that all goes well and I really look forward to seing it in the flesh at some point. Definately worth a trip up to your neck of the woods at some convenient point if that's possible.

 

[Jack]

Craig, I really like your side mirrors! Best!

its part of a load of stuff that needs addressing to get the IVA tick in the box.

 

[Dave]

Looks great and I too like those mirrors. The interior looks fantastic too, at least from what we can see of it. I'm hoping we can get pic of some better shots of the inside fro one f these cars.

Is that a painted or gel-coat finish?

 

[Jack]

I believe Craig's car has leather (black & cream) and ultra-suede on the overhead and
some other panels. Very well done interior. Car is painted to best of my knowledge. I'm sure Craig will chime in here tomorrow.

 

[Craig Gillingham]

the car has a black paint job.

Temp. wing mirrors are naff up close and personal much prefer the original RCR moulded ones but unfortunately dont meet UK IVA criteria in a number of areas.:thumbsdown:

That sucks

You should move here to redneck land - I got my cobra registered with no backup lights, no mirrors (NO sideview or rearview mirrors), no seat belts (although I did end up putting in the lap belt; but i hate the 5pt harness so I don't use it), and a slew of other violations :thumbsup:

 

[Craig Gillingham]

had to delay IVA for another week.

 

[Ben Whittle]

Everything okay Craig?

Car is looking fantastic regardless, if you have a moment I'm sure we'd love more pics of the interior please

 

[Jack]

Hang in there Craig! It will be a grand day when completed and certantly worth enduring the frustrations. I for one am eagerly anticipating your successful IVA and registration. My car is several months away from registration here.

Jack, do you have any pix of your build? Any custom mods that you recommend? Any snafus to avoid for us about to build?

 

[Doc Kaler]

Craig,

I too would like to see more of your interior since it looks quite nicely done!

[Bram Boekestein]

Good luck with IVA, looking really nice
Don't you need a windscreen wiper?

Bram

 

[Dean Lampe]

Craig, I agree with the others, lets see more of the interior. It looks very impressive.

Bram

it does now.....but not where you see the mounting boss point on this picture. The blade is also quite different as the contour of the windscreen is hard to follow...The UK is funny about people seeing out of the windscreen in the rain....:shy:

 

[Fran Hall RCR]

As it rains all the time...so they should....:sunny:

 

[Ben Whittle]

As I sit here listening to the rain bouncing off the roof....

 

[Doc Kaler]

What is this thing you call "rain"?? 16+ days of 100+ temps......

 

[Craig Gillingham]

car had to cancelled again....issue after final dyno run. :thumbsdown:

 

[Alex]

Emission issues?

 

[Craig Gillingham]

Emissions within limits.....Fewwwww as it is the hot cam LS376/480 although it is sold as a crate euro compliant motor - but you never know.

 

[Craig Gillingham]

goes on and off the trailer ok......
