long time between updates on here..
 
firewall is 90% done, and started playing with wheel colours..
Inner guard is smaller now to allow the carbies "just" enough room.
 
just need to get the steering column sorted (need a mk2 dash to get the proper position), and i can start saving for a cage to weld in!

No filters man, old man doesnt run them on his car, never has for 20 odd years without problem, im planning to do the same. Or i might make a thin but deep air box that has a air filter at the end, not to sure at this stage

So what colour scheme have you got planned for this one Matty?

Tar's for getting there. Dirt's for racing!

not sure cam, thinking of keeping it white and green like the colours it has always had but with a twist. I did think maybe like bob holdens cars are but with a green stripe or something.. its also going to stay as No.77..like they say dont change the name of ship..

Are there more bars and reinforcements to go into the cage?
From the photos, I'm not sure if it will be CAMS compliant.
 
Cheers

Got a replacement logbook for the lost one so cage only needed to meet the original cage specs of the time it was first log booked so it's fine as is will get more bars though before I paint the interior
