the car has been up to my buddy rons this year to try and get things moving along we spent time getting the major stuff out of the way and regiging some of the stuff i wasn't happy with 1)adjusting the nose angle and plumbing up brakes the rear axle 2)alloy cover for fuel pump 3)half roll cage with seat belt mounts 4)hand brake cable guide tubes and bias valve 5)refitted scuttle for old wiper motor as no need for single arm now with ford cosworth brake master cylinder 6)lengthened adjustable top srms as they where still to short 7)added blocks to arb so it didn't bang on the sump anymore 8)wiring up the electric powersteering ive forgotten loads of stuff but needless to say am very happy with the results,but no post would be complete without a fly in the ointment from "fanny the firenza" while mucking about with the front hubs i found that during her race career the front brakes calipers had elongated the bolt holes so ive taken them off and hope to get some top hat inserts made as i really don't want them flapping about under braking
