Finally got around to filling in the holes I put in to give more clearance for the radiator. I also completed the over plating on the underside of the chassis rail.ImageImageImageImageImage

A few more small jobs knocked over tonight. Passenger side engine bay inner guard finished. I also cut out part of the tunnel which I did and redid it as looked crap. Much happier with how it looks now. Also fabbed up a section to cover the hole I put in the tunnel to clear the gearbox.ImageImageImageImage

Bloody floors are giving me the shits as they have bucked. Guess will put some heat onto them and let Mr. Shrink do his thing.

I had trouble getting it to load but it did work eventually. It's a WIPE IT kit from CAE Performance Products in Caatlemain. Bit noisy at the moment but I need to grease the shaft and insulate it.
