Thanks Luc, (enjoyed following your build)
Well probably time for another update… it’s been so blooming cold up here in the north and I’ve got another project on the go at the minute so don’t have a great deal of spare time to work on Goliath, but as its starting to get closer to the summer I’m starting to crack on with this project.
So what have I been doing… well I managed to put all the engine pieces back together attached the manual gearbox and finally get it in the car. (I’ve been wanting to do this for ages!)
You can’t see it in this picture, but also start piping in my intercooler pipes with BOV onto the throttle body.
I also reattached the anti roll bar and started polishing the top of the alloy radiator.
As I’ve got the car up in the air decided to fit all my new brakes, fingers were crossed that they fitted, I knew they would be snug, by wow it’s a tight fit!
I’ve also now fibre glassed the rear tub, as one side wasn’t done properly and fitted new braided brake lines all round. Also started to rub down the underneath with a wire brush before I'll be giving it an undercoat.
My QTP exhaust butterfly valve arrived just the other day, I'm going to wire this into my dash and attach the valve to the decat pipe so that at the flick of a switch I can open up the exhaust in the middle of the car . (might be a touch loud!)
Interior wise, I sanded down all my dashboard panels, and have decided to paint them in Burgandy red, which will go with some of the interior flocking I’ve had done.
Next up is to start on the fuel lines and my engine loom, but I made a list to put in my garage, so I can start ticking things off!
Hopefully more updates to follow soon...
