Nice work Luke - Love the look of aluminium in the engine bay.

I made up a cardboard mock up of the battery box for Shaun, but I stuffed up a bit. I had it tucked nicely under the seat belt mount, but then realised (once I had cut the hole in the boot floor) that although it looked great, once the battery was in I actually couldnt lift the lid off over the battery (Number one in the dumbest things Ive done on my car so far) So I moved it further back (and patched the hole), but then it fouled wth the chassis cross member, so had to have Shaun cut the bottom off the bottom section and make it a bit shorter - Ill measure up tonight the final dimensions - I plan on using an Optima battery (like many) so sized it accordingly (I hope!)
