Hi Ian,
Just been having a read/look at your thread. I presume the car is currently on a SORN therefore when you get it completed you'll need to take it for an MOT. Since it was completed in 1994 there are some things that are now easy to trip over with a current MOT. You may be familiar with current requirements. If not shout out when you're getting closer and myself and others on here (in the UK) will help out.
 
Air duct at the front all done, and the 4.6l engine is in, loads left to make, route, and check. Lots of bits of Boeing and Airbus helping with the details.
Filled up the gearbox... Only to see it leak out of the driveshaft seals!!
Wondering if it will ever be finished!!

Some more progress made. Infact I think I can see light, some distance off in the tunnel! :)

It doesnt overheat, it stops, but I have to reinvent the throttle set up as its binary.

Interior bits and doors to fit, and it might make it out this summer!
