Random question regarding the rear hubs - are they just plain old subaru hubs, that you've essentially converted to double wishbone (like the 518 Racing kits)?

Cheers, yes I’ve just converted them mate, I haven’t seen those kits.
I set myself up, and rebuilt the front callipers. ☀️
Pedal box assembled and fitted.
Fuel tank......DONE!!! ✅ It’s taken me a couple of attempts to be honest, but I’ve managed to get it spot on, all pressure tested, no leaks I’m really pleased with it.
Rentonone what’s your background mate? The average joe couldn’t do this if you get me and it’s very impressive what you are doing, you should be looking for a cure for the coronavirus 👍

😂 Cheers mate👍🏻
I fitted a lawn mower engine to the back of my pedal go-kart when I was 12, and it pretty much spiralled from there, I was forever tatting with motorbikes and quads, fitting bigger engines.
About 20 years ago I worked at a Jaguar specialist and did a City and Guilds level 1 2 3 in Mechanics.
I eventually got bored, I’m now a Ventilation Engineer, but I will always have a project of some kind, I love building one off contraptions to keep me excited😁

I fancied a proper fibreglass bonnet for the buggy, instead of just alloy panels.
So I made a replica of what I wanted out of wood and filler, I then made a mold from it and produced the bonnet.
