Wow ! Great work Derek, really enjoying seeing things come together

wow. total respect
Please make two of everything and ship to me
Makes my set up look like the slightly eccentric older uncle.

Awesome. I hope you have the template as a lot of people would love to buy this rack set-up.

Good job.
don't like the look at the angle of steering column... odd angles.

Question on IDA, spotted there's no spare accelerator pump well..?

Ha! paper gasket coved it..
why not open it up with slot milling or drill wee holes at the bottom of spare accelerator well.
it give extra more fuel in the bowl.

Really liking your work on the dash and console .. looks sweet.

Can't stop looking at your rack either

I think we all are very impressed how you highly performed the rx7.
TIme for a bit of an update?

Ok Thomas,

I will sort something.

I've been busy, but it probably doesn't look like I have done very much !

I've been doing all sorts of odd jobs on the car, the plan is for a complete dry build before final paint on all the wings doors and a repaint of the interior. So to the radiator. I sourced a decent fan and fitted that up to an ally rad, I also moved the expansion tank as it will get in the way of the cold air feed otherwise.



I apologise that this upside down, photobucket will not rotate it.........



I made up some brackets to fit the fan, hopefully it will be man enough to get the flow needed when stationary.

For now I am going to run the car with standard front end, I hope to fit a GpB bumper and grille later, but that will need a fair bit of work, so for the time being it will be a standard set up.

So I stripped the headlights, blasted and primed them, I've sourced all new fittings for the rebuild. I need to keep them upright as I wont be using the motors.



I fabricated a keep for the bonnet stay.....

The bottom of both wings were a bit ropey,



so I made up repair sections and welded them up.





I also welded up the side repeater holes. (MOT regs say needed post August 1984)



I need to take a few more photo's of the wings, I forgot at the time...
