pic 46 looks unfinished............
is that shut line on bodywork just a mistake?
fuel hose needs to be marked for use with fuel
looks tidy though

Wire under dash ? can you push it up out of the way

handyandy - 12/4/09 at 07:55 PM

very nice car, love the colour, what ral number is that colour?
only things i can see that may need looking at are......
center of steering wheel,
bottom nuts on the fronts upright bolts & the thread/bolt thing at the base of the headlight anchor bolt.
very smart car

cheers andy

ral 004 me thinks?????????????

Pdlewis - 12/4/09 at 08:00 PM

Do you have a boot lid? if you dont i think they can radiouse test everything in there and itll fail

How come you have a gap on the bonnet fit?

Krismc - 12/4/09 at 08:03 PM

Pic 46- i need to Heat that up once suspension is set up 2mora.

Shut line is because the SVA cheat bar is fitted there for nose cone is further forward and i get a gap- that ok though for SVA??

silencer looks to be hanging very low..........

Centre mirror also looks quite low, have you checked rear vision?

wire under the dash needs pushing up and cable tying out of the way,

your bonnet scoop has NO hole in it ?

Bonnet scoop is more because the engine is too high in the bay, and the bonnet would not shut, so i cut a hole and the only way to cover it was a scoop.

I might try and raise the center mirror, havent thought how to yet, i can see out but would be better higher.

Cable ill have a look.

cant see the safety washers on the front uprights are they on
ps is that mnr's scoop.

Nice trailer, sure I've seen it somewhere else...

You in Monday? Popped in Saturday but no cars , no one in....

Have you got a handbrake gaitor? In pic 339 it looks like there isn't one. What's the short piece of tube poking out underneath the steering rack in the front views for?

Steve was in all day sat, matty popped over and took the trailer and car to garage for fuel for 20mins- must have missed us.

Come over today, im going in garage now til bout 1230pm, then we going to take car and check MPH guage.

Tube on steering rack is heat shrink, ready to be ''shrunked''

Is that wiring tie wrapped to the handbrake cable in pic 44, they may not like that.

mad-butcher - 13/4/09 at 08:55 AM

That's not a jubilee clip on the fuel line in pic 44 is it , they won't like that if it is
under dash is checked with contactable sphere above a certain height ( mine failed on a contactable relay )

Ive got jubilee clips on all my fuel lines?!? whats up with that, how else would i attach them?!

The black wire attached to the handbrake cable is the handbrake cable ends they go round the handbrake and back to the boot, so i tied them to handbrake cable.

can not see any reflectors

wicket - 13/4/09 at 10:04 PM

These are the type of clip that should be used for fuel hose.
