Well a lot has happened since the last update, the car is finally taking shape, Marc my son and I fitted the floor panels with silicone and rivets, thanks to my colleague Darryll we have the use of a pneumatic rivet gun, works like a dream. I then fitted the side panels with the help of my lovely wife Lynn and a tip here is to use Rachet type tie downs that work very well in pulling the front section of the panel into shape, see photo, Then i fitted the rear inner panel, bit of a bugger to get that one in had to trim it slightly. Following that I fitted the Tank and the rear Fibreglass panel.

Tiger wheel and tyre were kind enough to lend me a 15 inch mag wheel c/w tyre to see fitting of the rear fenders, As you can see from the photos the front suspension is done on the right side need to do the left still. just a another tip here remember the Right Rear hub wheel nut is right hand thread and the front one on the right side of the car is left hand thread. more photos to follow.
