thanks shaun, seems a great company.

Great work, Karl. For the polishing, you\'ll need to flat it back with wet and dry a bit before using the mops and compounds on it. Shouldn\'t need too much with that intercooler, just use ever-finer grades of paper till you get to about 1500 grit, and then it\'ll be ready for mopping. No short-cuts with polishing, I\'m afraid.

Loving those wheels, look well proper!

thanks nik,

yeh im going to have to buy some better sand paper and try again, just the lack of patients :Snoring

yeh im hoping they will suit the car well

[shaunwil]

No Problem, used them before for bits for the FB. Usually very helpful and quick

well from the last few days inbetween celebrations and eating i have been sat in my computer room trying to work out the wiring loom and what i need.

what a mess :2eek :Giggle





made a little spread sheet so i knew what was what so i dont forget and drew a few very brief layout of all the fuses and relays and how they are going to be wired. :xconfused

while flicking through the auto electricians catalogue.









glad to be back on the laptop now though.

i still need to find out what TEL is and the one above it on this cover??



all the things i need are now on order :mmmm



also recieved my battery box to be located in the boot.






once this wiring is done its just the bay to spray and it wont be much longer until it will be somewhere near finished...for now

Wow Karl. Talk about dedication. That thing will be a beast when it is finished. Keep up the good work.

TEL - Might be wrong but isnt that for a telecommunications device, however thinking was that even an option though???

[karl_tate]

cheers rzla

well thats what i thought, but i dont think there was such an option??

[karl_tate]

had a nice little delivery today but with a nice price as well





could some one please next time they pop the bonnet, have a look at what the fuse is called above TEL :god

for some reason i want this year to go fast so i can do my own rebuild lol!
 
anyways mate here you go:
 

[karl_tate]

lol must admit its a good feeling when you know you have done it yourself.

thanks alot mate, really appreciated :King

[ENVYD]

yeah i just know i would end up going to far with it lol!
 
 
no bother mate!

[karl_tate]

yeh thats the problem, you never know when to stop. had to tell my self a few times, i really dont need to do that lol

any way, a bit more done, the bits that i have ripped out and simplified should be complete soon.

here is the only box that will be on show in the bay, was originally going to hide it behind/under the passenger headlight but for practically, i dont really want to remove the headlight every time a fuse "may" blow. sooo its going to mounted somewhere around the area where you can see the inner arch.



and this is the little lot that will be connected to it.




here is the drivers side part of the loom that i have managed to sort out and re-tape partially.

the separate, covered wires are all the ones from that side that have been chopped out and capped off.






and this is the drivers side, indicator, side light, main and dipped beam loom and the passengers will be the same.




also got my greedy elbow during the week, the parts are still collecting. just need to get a clutched ordered and some others bits and im nearly there.



have also given my mate some bits that i want to be polished and they are looking good

[karl_tate]

well done a bit more tonight and have now finished the front wiring loom under the slam panel. all tidied away and no ugly fuse box :yes



and the UIM semi polished



also recieved my wheel spacer as well




thats all for now folks.......
