Paul (Notts) - 22/2/07 at 05:59 PM

Finally found some time to work on the car today. Made excellent progress

Made bracket for accelerator cable
Fitted accelerator cable
Fitted choke cable
Fitted rear arches
Started to make bracket to hold alternator at bottom of engine bay.

Have also fitted dizzy this week and coil + leads

Fuel lines are now finished and connected up

Started thinking about exhaust system – will have to make one.

If I can keep this up the car will be ready for SVA this summer

I reckon that there are about 5 new Vientos due on the road this summer - Soon we'll have enough to actually create a public nuisance! Happy days...
