Thanks for the kind words guys

Chippa,im really hoping to have it at SFS next year.There is still a heap of work to do but im aiming for SFS.
I have a Group C Mk1 to do once my car is completed but once the Mk1 is painted,i have nothing scheduled to do after that

I took a few more pics today of some of the little detail things on the car.Will post them up tomorrow.

Ok.a few more pics...
Brake booster etc painted & re-fitted




door lock mechanisims zinc plated & fitted



Engine crossmember,anti dive kit,sway bar etc powdercoated & re-fitted

"carbon fibre" door mirrors fitted,as are c-pillar vents




Petrol tank & straps painted & re-installed along with reverse eye springs



Front struts will get assembled this week & put in.
Then diff will get stripped and painted next weekend & it will be back on its wheels again

this car looks great.good work,
what wheels do you have or thinking of getting for it?

I too agree, you are doing a top job on this. I noted in the brake booster pic that you appear to have a new grommett to go on the firewall where the heater hoses enter and exit. If so, where did you pick it up, mine is really dodgy.

Thanks for the nice words guys

Have these to go on it....


Had them stripped,centres powdercoated,rims re-rolled & polished.

For the seal around the heater outlet,you can buy them on Ebay in the UK or buy some rubber the right thickness & cut it to size.Thats what i did.

Looking fantastic. Really love watching the rebuilt.

Where did you get the Carbon Fibre door mirror and C- pillar vens? Great choice.

Cheers
Andrew

Geez - looking AMAZING [:u]

What size and offset are the V4's?

Did you get them done by a local shop or a Simmons reseller? Did you replace the cap head screws around the centre - if so with what?

Vents & mirrors were done by a guy in Bayswater.
He was an absolute nightmare to deal with & it took quite a while for him to do them but im happy with the result.
I also have a Carbon Fibre spoiler for the bootlid as well.I will take some more pics over the weekend as i get a few more parts fitted.

I had the wheels re-done by a place called Neway Wheels in Heidelberg.Great guys to deal with & they did an awesome job.
Wheels are 15x7.Not sure of the offset,sorry[:I]

They do look fantastic. IMHO the V4 would have to be one of the nicest wheels produced that suits the late 70's / ealy 80's style of car.

Can you please post a pic to show the dish on the rim and the back of the hub please? I too have V4's and I'm curious of the offset difference as mine appear to have a thinner hub section which will allow a deeper outer dish - but i'm not sure.
