Update September 20th 2019

Body kits arrived

The body arrived from Chesil with a whole host of other parts.



I have lifted the body on the car and ensured everything fits, it is heavy and much more substantial than I expected. Everything fits!

Soundproofed the doors

Started to fit the window winder mechanisms, not an easy job

I have test fitted all the lights and trim and made quite a lot of amendments to the openings.

The engine is  making progress, albeit slow and next job is to get the engine bay lined, I have a plan which will hopefully make the engine bay look really good. More detail in October/November

I'm going to lift the body back off and get it into the paint shop and I will then start sorting out the external oil cooler and a few other jobs on the rolling chassis.

Update August 19th 2019

I have been busy with work and waiting for parts but at last I'm moving on again! The body, electric pack etc is arriving from Chesil this week which will give me a lot to do.

Interior

I have done some work on the interior design and fingers crossed I think I have come up with a nice design. I'm going for a two tone colour using a Savannah and Cashmere leather colour.

Initial seat designs is done and I'm having one made up to check the final look.



Braking system

All adjusted and bled, I'm using DOT5, from what I have read it is more suitable for the car that doesn't get used too much and it isn't corrosive, it was however more expensive.

Wheels on!

Car now off the axle stands and on its wheels.
