Gave the car a quick buff and clean today in preparation for JJ's Multi-Venue Autotest tomorrow....
20mm Spacers added to the top of the coilovers. Ground clearance is a must for rough stuff...

Looking good Piers, I hear you're also putting in more power. Just on an side note, how easy is it to hit the swithes, is one of them the power switch, can it be hit by accident?
I've encountered this problem before whereby the power switch was hit because it was in a vunerable place. Just a thought. Great looking work all the same.

Interesting point on the power switches. I guess we will find out this weekend...

@Owen, Here is how I mounted my Hydraulic Handbrake. Hope it helps.. I used a spreader plate on the other side of the gearbox tunnel.

Just bought the fittings & braided hose from Murray Motorsport. The cylinder is unbolted and moved about to bleed then bolted back in place.
