Awesome, love it with the brace bar. i'm guessing you have a round tank so you don't have to modify the boot floor?

Thanks Pieter.


No its cool rick, as it's the original boot floor it has had patched up over the years it was looking a mess then with the turrets going in there, it all looked ‘’a bit cut and paste’’ so now it’s all clean now. It will look ok with some paint on it.

So far today I have cut my nose open and give myself a fat eye and I was only finishing the painting and fitting the beam back on, so now all over Xmas I will look like I went 2 rounds in the boxing ring.
But at lest my work sponsored spray mask worked well.


And this is a pic of things to come.



thanks simon.

Mate this is dedication. Today I got up at 06.45hr to drive all the way to Merlin Motorsport for when it opened, so I could get some alloy fuel line, as it’s like sitting in a jerry can at the moment and the smell was killing me. So last night I was thinking that now’s the time to do it as there is no fuel in the car.

Then when I got home I set to work on the car just for it to start pissing it down, so I had to set up a bit of a pikey camp to carry on working. I did about 3hrs and the last time I was that wet was when I was in the jungle in Central America.
