Any way we decided that the inner wings had to be as close to symmetrical as possible so out came the tappometer's to get them as close as poss then smoothed over.

all suspension back on
http://i402.photobucket.com/albums/pp104/johnnyboymg/121020091353.jpg
People at the carpet place owe me paint after a small incident so the car is going in for a full paint job and other bits in the next week or two.

Bump strips removed ready for smoothing

Glad the strut tops didn't crack when the car was back together. And the paint really is that shiney.

Engine block awaiting fitment
http://i50.photobucket.com/albums/f304/wnagofaster/DSC_0137.jpg
Custom M/T series head setup.

Coilovers are now on thanks to Nathan a star man as always.
Font will go lower once engine is in plus it still has the helper springs to keep some comfort. Rear is as low as possible for now till arches get rolled.
Need to get my finger out but weather and working hours mean I haven't had the motivation to do much. But all being well work will re-commence this week. Gonna get brake pipes and custom polished stainless tanks made up for engine bay.
