Pete,
How will the weight of your FC be?, do you predict it to be much different from before you started?

Im predicting 1240KG or less

should be lighter than before? maybe.
Another big day let loose on my own again as the boys were busy on other projects
all the sills are tied into the inner sills and i got no distortion very very happy with my efforts today everything fell into place.
I made the sill flow at the rear away from the floor.
The front has a very nice radius on it now.
I re built the multi layer section at the front so the mudguard has a really nice section to land on (forgot finished photos)

Got to agree all the crap that the kids(and some adults) say these days, we are becoming to Americanised. Us Aussies are loosin our heritage, political correctness has a lot to answer for, how did we get onto this subjet anyway? isn't this about what is going on with the rebuild. Which by the way is looking fantastic, must be over the moon with the way it is going,you should spray the floor in clear so all that great work can be displayed for all to see.

More shiny parts today

New billet fuel rail and some 1000cc injectors should keep her happy...

1000cc injectors is a little overkill isn't it?
