Nice job, that engine looks right at home in there ;D.  Watch the copper fuel lines though, the engine vibration tends to make the copper work-harden and crack.

...Smart job...Like it... :P

But to me, I think they should be in Lotus colours of green and yellow.   Thats giving my age away when the lotus 7s were like that...........Many moons ago... ;D

Looking great Peter. I see you have gone for a darker blue as opposed to pale blue.... very nice.

I must pop around some time to take another look.

I prefer the darker blue to the pale blue look, much nicer and matches the seats ... but then I would say that as it is a similar colour to mine.

Looks like you glued the mudguards. I expect you made a good job of yours, mine fell off so they are now pop riveted.
