After a hard but fairly successful season of events Bob has dropped the car off with me for a major makeover and revision.

As before I just have the rolling shell.

Jimmer at Power Zed has already removed the engine and box.

He will be doing a strip down /inspect/replace routine on the Kyle Puckett engine.

Bob has dropped the gearbox of at Advanced Motorsport engineering at silverstone for a similar strip/inspect/replace routine.

The rest arrived at my place last weekend .... looking a little worse than when it left in the spring!!!!

 

The brief from Bob is long and detailed.................. but it starts with a reinstate of the 99 spec front with splitter and the TwinZ rear bumper.

I already obtained a good used 99 spec from Mikey Bean and I have a new Twinz rear from Mark Derbys group buy.

I will get a new sheet of ally and make another front splitter. good job I kept the template!!

There are numerous detail improvements on the schedule too. More details to follow!

Probably the most important/significant is a new custom loom for the car. Over the development period of the car numerous items have been added by several people. The result now is a total mess of wiring everywhere with no one personknowing exavtly what is joined to what!!!

This winter I am lucky that our new race day team member Paul is helping at my place with all the work.

Im simply getting too old for some of the harder physical jobs needed.

In addition the newly formed Bodymech team of "Boldy" and "Manta V8" are doing the panel fitting and giving the whole shell a fresh coat of paint inside and out.

so Im sure everyone will be adding to the thread as they get their quota of jobs done.

 

So a few pics meantime and can you spot the brake problem???

I have also highlighted some fittings that need "improving"

Check out the rats nest of wiring too!!

They now don,t show on my original post unless i click on them but CarMad,s are fine ??????? ooooer

I,ll try to upload em again .

This what was hidden under alot of bad filler

I cut out the plate that had been welded over most of the hole ?? used a slide hammer to pull the panel edge back out and used wiggly wire and the pin puller to get the rest out .

I trimmed it up and made a new repair plate and tacked it in , gonna finish it later .

The spoiler holes have been welded up but darren used the spot welder cos you get far less distortion than mig welding them .

Darren hard at it with the pin puller repairing the damage running down the O/S sill

Ive already seen them, wheres the new ones :lol::lol:

That's better :wink: nice work fellas :cool2:

Soooo much better for some quality pannelwork.

Looking good guys,great work, coming along nicely
