Rob_Mitchell Posted October 3, 2015 Author Share Posted October 3, 2015 Started on the engine bay. Forgot just how much work is involved in this process. We are going to fully smooth the front part of the bay. Heated up the humps and gave them a good hammering this morning. Also got the turret top plates welded/brazed into place (cheers baldy) he supplied the panels. Looks a bit rough at the moment but we have not started grinding the welds back yet.

Rob_Mitchell Posted October 5, 2015 Author Share Posted October 5, 2015 Finished polishing the custom top suspension rings today. Really nicely made. I took delivery on a sheet of aluminium to build a rear seat delete, nearly fainted at the invoice but never mind least it will stay lightweight. More updates on that very soon.

Rob_Mitchell Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 Been working on a little project last few days. I wanted to keep some of the little features which were on the car and give it that little race look inside the car. Originally the car had a auto panel so I located a new manual surround and cut a little sheet of carbon to make the template to hold the battery kill/inhibitor switch. Added a tan leather gator to match the rest of my interior. This obviously stops me from having a cigarette compartment but I don't smoke and not needed. Also had a lovely box arrive with the manifold back from the Chromers, looks amazing now, I'm really happy with the quality. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimojameso Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 Manifold looks awesome all chromed up. Hate to piss on your rainbow but isn't that cut off switch going to be very annoying there, as that is where you always rest your arm.
