Excellent work Alistair! Won't be long now!! Cheers Colin

Frustrating evening tonight, I went to fit the clutch and its the wrong one!! Frustratingly I orded it from GSF on line where they do not credit you...

The post has gone way off topic (but I'm sure an administrator will soon jiggle the posts around and start a new thread) :coat: My two pennith...

Hi Colin, Paul, Mario, The email below was sent to Pilkington this evening, I will follow-up with a call in the next couple of days:

That still doesn't make sense to me if it wants to suck and blow why not just do that from the inlet manifold, there is only a few inches between and...

Back in the day I made a few fibreglass moulds and canoes. It's not that difficult, very satisfying, but fu..lipping messy. I used to get the...

For ease of just painting & fitting it have a Nostrelled bonnet made. There is a lot less work, itching, missalignment etc making a full bonnet then...

Still thinking of the induction question for everyone the crankcase breather splits one side feeds into the inlet manifold and the other feeds into...

Hi Alex, I think a joined panel would make more sense, so that the orientation and spacing of the nostrils would be correct, but would be happy to...

Yes it would Martin, but Phill and I live way up north in Scotland where Mk1 bonnets are rarer than haggis's teeth, so we're open to other methods. ...

Could do, would mean laying-up that area then taking amould from it....

Would you want them as two seperate nostrils or a joined panel?

wouldn't making the whole bonnet be easier / better than grafting in to a different bonnet - maybe not easier but wouldn't it give a better result?

Cheers guys, and Dirk, I think that adding a rear under tray from the floor drops backward would work fine .... and be a lot easier to fabricate...

I started putting bit back in the car this weekend, Yesterday I got the petrol tank in along with filter pump and fuel lines, I have also got the...

Looking very good and I think the slopes will help. Once I get the Avante back on its wheels I'm going to try and add a rear under tray from the...

Looking very solid Alistair, good work.

>> The light ends up 10cm higher than on the stock car which I think is enough to scrape into legality.... Nice update. That IVA is a pain...

Well done. One more side to go then you can start putting it all back together again. :clapping:

Its fair to say you have cracked the welding!! Nice work , well done

Looking very promising Alex! Hopefully that'll be enough. I know what you mean about the weather. I find it very difficult to motivate myself...

Anyone want to see a photo of Dirk's rear?!? :outahere: But before that, maybe those of a nervous disposition should look away now!! I...

Next stage with the canopy is to flip it and glass the underside, weather not making that too inviting so I started hacking another part about.... ...

Steve are going for the one with harness holes or not? I'm not having the harness holes as it doesn't go with the theme of my car. Another thing...

I might be able to answer that question for you next week. I contacted Intatrim and they have been very helpful, I am taking a standard Stonleigh...

I'm thinking maybe it would be best to provide a nostril area Mould that could be applied to the bonnet once a couple of holes had been cut in. Then...

attached photo proof, after rebuilt

Hi Alex, Could you possibly make me a couple of 'nostrils'? Roughly how much would you want for them? PM me if you'd prefer not to broadcast...

I still have the mould..... if you only want the nostril area that wouldn't be too difficult!
