update 27.07.07
Not a huge update but another step in the right direction.I bought the car with light damage to the near side front which the insurance company had deemed as a write off although it was only needing a new wing and a door,so when I applied for a log book I was informed that it had to go for a vehicle identity check.I spoke to the VOSA people who said to send off my form and that there was a 4 week backlog and the soonest date they had was August 21st which was a bit gay.On tuesday (24th) my old dear rang up to book it in whilst I was at work and was told there was a cancelation for 8.50am today (27th),result!.Was up early doors and blatted down to chelmsford with my uncle on trade plates and it all checked out fine so can send off the paperwork to get the V5C enabling me to tax it.It was the cars first decent run which went almost faultlessly apart from it liking to pop out of second gear,so we have decided to swap the 'box for an S2 RST item when we change lumps,which will hopefully start being reassembled next week in preparation to do so.Took receipt of my fibreglass bonnet last week also :aviator:.cheers steve
the hinges will be retained at the rear for mounting and will be secured at the front using locking aerocatch items for added security and because they're more subtle than conventional bopnnet pins.
I've swapped the locating pins to the ones pictured from another set of bonnet pins I bought as I thought the alloy ones supplied in the kit seemed a bit flimsy,and that they were a gay red(pink) colour
I added a TRS net in the back to hold the essentials.map,steering lock,torch,tools ETC
