Gav will probably be on the road before me LOL!

That being said: progress has been made, just nothing worth updating anyone with lately. I've finished the engine loom and I'm now back into the bodywork. Fixing all the holes I made during the previous mods. Plan to drop the body back on and gap the doors, bonnet and boot and get the whole thing in high fill.

Even better than that, I'm waiting for club cobra to rework their photo adding software so it's not such a pain in the ass ...

Here is a non photo update,
The new beast is in the workshop and I have about 25 boxes of stuff to unpack and check against the packing list.
I am really happy with the build quality, the Components are all really well made.
I threw in a seat to check for head height and there is more than what was in my old Cobra with the hard top so that is all good.
The foot boxes are on the small side, but given what is going to be powering it I doubt that anyone will be concentrating on that!!!!
