Ooooo, I hope you remove the sticky residue on the line from the duck tape before Emma hangs out the clothes, or someone will be in trouble  ;) ;D

Nothing really to drip feed yet.

Had a disaster yesterday.

Blasted the front arms and the chassis.

Powder coated the chassis last night. It come off the chains on the conveyer first time round and landed on the floor on a 200 degree oven.

Switch it all off, let it cool. Straighten out where it bent the rear strut tower.

Powder coat it again, then find out it's too big for the turn at the bottom and it scraped the wall, so needed to carry out some quick remedial work.

So by the time I finished messing about I was loading the chassis onto the roof rails with a fork lift truck at 7.30 last night.

As soon as I have all the arms painted and stripped the callipers and hubs and painted them, fitted poly bushes I'll upload some pics.

Then it's engine rebuild and drivetrain fitment

Orange seems to be the fashionable colour!

Spotted by Chris Holmes at a recent Goodwood members meeting - The GMA (Gordon Murray Automotive) T.50 Niki Lauda Track Car, V12, 12,100rpm. 750hp in an 853kg car  :P

"A total of 100 T.50s will be built, commencing in 2022 and priced from £2.36m before local taxes or charges."

Darn, it looks like they've all been sold  ;) :))
