What have I to report then ………

Well the car has the new bonnet on which matches the carbon roof
I have also had the oil breathers made which consists of a crankcase breather mounted to the front of the block and then a catchtank /breather on the bulkhead.
This vents to atmosphere and also drains back to sump.

The car has had the rear end pampered with a resprayed bumper and tailgate due to being a little scratched from constantly pushing in and out of garage and hitting items in its path.

The final stint is underway as the car is away on holiday at mo, having the HT leads made as the coil pack is re-located and a new wiring loom made too.

Yes, the car will be running within a matter of days/week… Cant bloody wait to hear how the new exhaust sounds, looks the part lets hope it doesn’t sound like a 1.2 Nova with a big bore 44.

Two weeks and it will be running.

The exhaust is 3" with two silencers which are 3" straight through also so there will be no restrictons just hopefully absorb some noise.

Good friend of mine does, so the car resides on the ramp - ready for tinkering at any given oppertunity.

Taking longer though than originally intended :(
As we have gotten a bit carried away with mods.
