So I have been really busy with both job so finding the time to work on any of cars has been a mission, never mind annoying others to work on it too :) Got the engine mounted back in, wiring started again, custom fuel cell and the new dash arrived, hope to have it out for paint by the end of December as I still need to make the front bumper, dumb ass idea to wide arch her. Enough talking more pics :








For now she is good as a shelf :)

Called up to the lads in Stone Motorsport, trying to get a push on atm on the car so while Brendan was on the mechanics I was tipping away fibreglassing the front bumper





New clutch went, then the rb25 box and prop



So much room in the engine bay



Matting was up first



Used some resin, wanted to stay away from filler as long as possible



Had to extend the side down also



V-mount going back in



New fuel system is sick



Not happy with just mounting it, Brendan made a new rear jacking point also




Need to clean off some surface rust and paint underneath but it will look mint




View from the rear

@ panosRB7 : Thanks dude, just made the car fit the wheels really LoL



So a bit has happened the past couple of weeks, got the fuel support painted up, new braided lines, billet fuel rail fitted, fpr, 740cc rc developments injectors and the exhaust system is all mocked up, just needs to be welded fully and we are well on our way, few more jobs to do but getting there thankfully :) Shout out to Stone Motorsport for all their hard work :)
