Look forward to the updates! You can buy dry ice from gas suppliers like boc etc, easy to get if you can google local places, it's soooo much easier and better than using a heat gun and the metal is left scratch free and clean after.

- The dash is currently undergoing some gauge mods to liven it up a bit, so there's the usual wiring and plumbing to sort out.
- Induction kit has been removed and due to the piping issues at the last trackday and having to use tank tape to repair I have deiced to do something different. So plans are to relocate the battery back to where it was before, inside the cabin. Then use the space where the battery was to mount the BMC and keep it away from the radiator. Get some alloy pipes and new hoses as the current ones are looking tired and soft.
- Look to remove the aircon system and pump and anything else that's wasting away.
- Remove the sound deadening material. Think that'll be the old fashioned way as no idea where I would get my hands on dry ice.
- The biggest job is to cut the wheels arches out and up and fabricate some wider arches similar to the national hotrods and those I used to fit when racing on the ovals. Given up with the BTCC route as that seems pretty dead now. Would like to do this as per the BTCC but requires alot of mods and work to copy it.
