Glad to see your posting again , Coming along nicely looks like we may finish the same time Denz, trying to get Stalker to do Brawdy Stages in July with me, I suppose it depends if he`s loved up or stalking!

Looking good! What colour have you decided on? I have had to send my mudflaps to the Hydrographics boys to get the Pink colour you said they had to be, they will look good against the white of the car

Catch you next week for a catch up

international bars done and painted, busy day on the car for a change . put some carbon wrap on the door bars save the paint when getting in and out ..

made some brackets to hold the brace and nut gun



wheel post in some foam to help keep the floor tidy .



cheapest part of the build so far



wheel straps all done just need to find somwhere for the jack to live

wheels back from powder coating , gave the guy the option of black or silver so long as they were all the same colour , cant do rally cars with different colour wheels , OCD overload so when i got back from hols they had been delivered back so it was a mystery till i opened the first one , pleased with the end result though ..

hope to have a full day tomorow again , getting the little bits done , they take all the time , brawdy next weekend servicing for bimsy , his first time out in the beast so should be interesting .

managed to pick up a s/h light pod for the lamps fitted them during the week , trial fitting this morning bit of bling for the old girl . was going to track it but my gauges wont fit on an 18 inch wheel so i found out , will have to blag a loan of our laser ones from work , job for in the week ...

[denzilbmw]

couple of hours this morning in between decorating duties , done the door squares and a bit of colour just to break it up a bit .

still waitng on pistons so they are holding everything up now ...

[Bimsy]

Glad to see a bit of colour on the car, I`ve also added a nice tyre mark down the length of mine from Brawdy still it looks like it has seen action now

Hurry up and get those pistons sorted !!!!!!

Keep your chin up Denz
