Hey Fozzie

How about some pics of your progress?

[MrFozzieBear]

That's one thing I keep forgetting to is take photo's  , on the next dry day I'll pull the chassis out of the garage and take a few.
Although I haven't touched it for a few months due to changing jobs and other commitments it's a completed chassis now minus wishbone brackets.
I'm going to be dry fitting everything first on a bare chassis when almost complete I'll strip it and get the chassis powder coated. My main job first though is to start making my moulds for my body i'm having a go at doing my own. A lot of work ahead but things have settled down now so I can commit a lot more time to the car.

When I took my engine out the first time last month I put in a 2.4 turn MK2 Escort quick rack from Rally Design in and it has improved driving around the villages near me no end. The vast majority of roundabouts can now be taken without moving my hands. I've not tried it a motorway speeds yet so I don't know if it's made it skittish up there.

Alternatively my old one is a 3.2 turn to turn and is now available if you don't want to feel like you're at the gym driving around every corner... PM me if you're interested.

Take lots of pictures !

I've heard a nasty rumour that you have to prove that you built the car for sva / iva theese days and that pics are the best way. Any comments ?
