Intrim update:

Been busy moving my business to another workshop recently so this has taken a bit of a back seat but now trying to get back on it.

Very Nice, but you've fitted the rear lateral links upside down?

Also why haven't you removed the A/C if its a track car (I'll admit that I haven't read the whole thread)

Cheers, already spotted that, they are just swinging there till hubs go in so I'll swop them around then.

Ac is staying because the trade off is minimal. I competed in the mk1 mr2 series last year and it was either sweating your ***** off or Windows misting up in the wet. This is why I have decided to keep it.

Sadly i may be having to sell this as an unfinished project due to losing my workshop space. Looking at other options but so far no luck as it won't even fit in my garage at home & it's not the sort of thing i can leave outside.
It's now rolling, engine starts & runs but needs a fair few things doing to finish it inc brake lines, wiring tidying up, exhaust system, dash fitting, arch extensions fitting, some form of door cards installing to name a few.

Will keep updated, hopefully i'll find somewhere else in time.

Such a shame. I love this car and everything you've done so far.


If I had the space I'd have this as another toy.

So this is going up for sale as a whole or in parts, whole preferred tbh. Obviously i'll do a proper for sale thread but just thought i'd post up in here incase anyone who has followed was interested.
Please contact via pm if genuinely interested. Don't want to sell as i'll loose a lot of money but times have changed for me.

That's such a shame mate, hopefully you'll get a decent buyer come along and take the whole thing off your hands.
