beat me to it...
beat me to it... Continuing on with the work this weekend.
Got the rear trailing arms out and will be polybushed tomorrow hopefully.
Got the new lexan windows pop-riveted in
Put on the boot with slider pins
Took off the front hubs and pressed new Buddyclub Rollcentre Adjusters in I also took off the metal disc guard which will allow me to run cooling channels to the discs themselves
Finished polybushing teh front subframe and installed the subframe.
Also managed to put the pedals, wiper motor and single wiper conversion back in.
I also put new polybushings in the P1 camber arms and im doing a small little mod on these before i put them back in.
Heres a few pics:

this work is sensational! keep coming...
Thanks for the comments.
Another few days work should see everything back on the car apart from the running gear.
If im out for a few events before the end of the year i'l be happy, but ive still an awful lot of small things to sort out.
And as we all know, fixing problems=spending money
Funds are running a little low at the moment.
