Might as well as I'm building it from scratch. That website seems great for component parts. Looking forward to doing it!

Will you be able to buy all necessary plugs to make a loom?

Ah your right dear chap, what what what!

Just pricing up wiring, switches and a few other bits! Not as much as I thought.

Ordered wiring from www.vehicle-wiring-products.eu and cam next morning, great turnaround!

**spanishfly** · 03-10-2008, 09:44

Just been on the phone with Pro-tec.. ordered my f/glass bonnet and my alloy steering rack mounts! Should be able to crack on next week

i ordered all my switches from there for my loom, only ballache is if you bought the hazard switch...the wiring diagram they send you is poor.

**spanishfly** · 13-10-2008, 19:36

So had a tinker today... and then had a long think about what to do with the car... Unfortunetly times have changed, things have to giveway!

or

Started on the loom for headlights today, not to daunting once you get to it. Got no pics of the loom as all it is, is a few white wires atm.

Fitted my wings and bonnet on to see the fit, really good fit! Even down to the lines meeting up (chuffed). So as you can see in the pics front end needs painting...

Also going to repair my rear arch... hoping it won't turn out like Lees

My tailgate I feel needs a spray too, as the paint has chipped of in places from me dropping it

See a trend here? The doors have carbon all over them, could probably be mopped off. Going to remove the stickers to do the above. So I've (with persuation, well agreement of Flatout) going to paint the car. It will be staying red, but a more modern Red.
