Havent entered as yet, cant see the car being ready in time, would much rather help friends with TimeAttack than rush my car..

Got some bits to start on my inlet manifold though, and have calculated my plenum size.

Just got others to finish first

just gone through this thread from page one and its very very amazing! I used the same technique when i made the roll cage for my last project and to be honest it was one of the easiest methods i used.

Really does look out of this world and good luck!

As far as I know, David is selling EVERYTHING, the Wagon shell with the multipoint and the Silver monster engined car.

Stand to be corrected, but I think I'm right.

No - Not quite Graham.

I need to get rid of one of my cars as I no longer have anywhere to store one of them. I figured the shell with a cage would be easier to sell than the silver car, but obviously not as there wasnt much interest.

So current plans are to finish the wagon, Should be ready for paint shortly (which I have bought now ), just got to finish lining up the drivers side doors and boot lid.. and a bit of filling.. and prep. Done a couple of mods to the cage too.

What Ill then do is move the silver car to a friends house and strip the bits I want off it and scrap it if I cant find someone to take a silver UK Wagon with no engine or box at silly ish money!

Don't paint it yet. Finish it, then take it apart for final paint once you've done all the wiring, bracketry and so on.

I know I should, but I should have plenty of paint to touch things up if needed.. I'm probably going to leave under the bonnet unpainted though!

Theory is if I get the shell painted up then it will motivate me more to get on with it, as it will look more complete
