Looks great pal

Your attention to detail will make it a spot on build,the engine wiring loom looks really good now.you should take a pic of all the wiring you've removed!

That's rather bright!

Interesting to see that there is very little front end to the MK chassis, it looks really short with the steering rack pretty much outside the chassis.

Is that a one piece prop Chap? It looks very long - has someone checked the calcs for you to say that the tube will cope?

Nice build though.

By the looks of the size of the battery, the car is also electrically powered and no room for the passengers legs. Why such a big battery? if you don't mind me asking.





If it can't be fixed with a hammer then its probably an electrical problem.

That's all good then. Four MKs, and presumably a MEV? You've made me feel much better about this addiction.

I wanted to use a car battery (off a 1.2clio) had it off a mate at work who was scrapping his car.with using a starter motor for my reverse I didn't want to use a bike one. plus im only 5.7 il never sit on the passenger side.


This is the last build I promised the wife?

A Free battery is a good enough reason and with the electric reverse it should do 0 to 60 as quick going backwards.
