That's the plan, I might have to borrow Bec's motor, turbo and box as money is getting low.
I'll just do what I can and if it doesn't make it I still have the bus to race

No. I've seen day by day, a full drag car built in 4 weeks, drive in to cut up to staging at the tree, show condition!!
But 7 specialist men working full time.
I'm not going to rush, it needs to be right.
That's ok Stanley, it was worth the soup!!

The Soup , I feel there is a race car name there .
Look deep into the soup and you will see new idea's , plus the soup bowl , may end up used in the build to .
Have your thought about the tranny blanket ?

The soup was chicken (rotisserie, rotary)
I have made room for a ballistic blanket or scatter shield for when I go faster than 11.0 or 7.01/8 mile, at this stage becs engine and turbo are
looking good so should only see 7.6's I guess.
I keep the andra book close and read the wording carefully.

Thanks for the kind words guys!!
The old front is now bolt on/off, same as the rear.
The bonnet and boot will open as normal but the front guards will be attached to the apron as one then bolted on/off to body, same goes for the rear.
You will see pics soon.
The rear tyres are 275's but measure 295mm...11.5"
Glad to keep y'all entertained
