Well as promised, a small update for you lot!
As i mentioned before, its up and running, bled the clutch and brakes today so can safely move about, i was beginning to think it would never happen!
Started to finish the tuck arounfd the wings and thats well underway, done the PS first as i am still waiting for my slimline rad fan.
Anyway, you get the drift, now here's a few pics of what i've been up to!
Back of the headlight, thats all the cables that will be seen!
My washer bottle, i cut the top off it and re sealed it up. I wired the 2 pumps to come on at the same time so more presure for my honda jazz water jets!
Quick shot of the underside:
Pics of the engine post tuck
And proof that she's mobile, here's my wee neighbour takin it for a spin about the house!
More detailed pics tomorrow!

Cheers man! I'm happy with the way its turning out, manual steering takes a bit of getting used to tho!
Thanks for thre kind words lads. interior is pretty much finished, car is running and driving well, but i'm still waiting for my bumpers, wing, bonnet and spoiler to get finished and fitted
Nearly 3 weeks i'm waiting now, haven't had anything to do to the car so thats about the only thing holding me back now
(
On another note tho, the CEL light keeps coming on for some reason. It only comes on once the engine is at nearly or at full operating tempand usually when decellerating. I flashed the CEL with a paperclip and was getting MAP sensor but i changed it for a mate's and it made no difference at all(
It has a pretty new O2 sensor in it too, put it in last year.
Any one have any ideas for me? Any help much appreciated!
