I have a very special question
The father of my buddy is looking for 4 of these air outlets
It is a 1973 Jaguar E-Type V12
The Grilles for the air condition (U.S. model)
Maybe someone knows where to get the air outlets.
Would be great maybe it works even when we are in the UK this week.
HI,
Now we have a medium-length high Sprinter. hopefully both kits go inside.
With the Sprinter we can go faster than 80.
The sprinters we get from the Father of our buddie who also has the Jaguar.
I would like to do him a favor (with the air outlets)

Hi all,
3 days and 2000 km further we would like to say thanks again Chris!
Everything has worked out fine, but the time was too short. We could not even visit someone.
I just did some pictures and then I go to bed.
HI Patrick,
You've been even with Chris when we were there.
greetings to your wife and you, from us.
After the more than 2000km we need to sleep for 24houres
Tomorrow we will begin with the kits.
I've taken a week off and hope to come along nicely.
It was so great that we come back for the next Kit Car Show

Today we started.
Both roll cages were painted and customized.
Then we cut my rear end and adapted. The NB is not so simple. The side panels are a lot wider. But it is possible. Tomorrow we will match
Irfan `s rear end.
I have a question about the inner boot extender. Has only the lower part will be reduced by 2.5 " ?
About an answer I would be very happy

Great start
Cut down both sides here ..V...and along to bottom of the boot extender and overlap the two parts as shown and bond together with Tiger Seal.
Also trim the edge that fits against the original rear panel of the car to clear bumper brackets etc. You will need to cut holes as shown to access cables for rear lights.
Day #2
Everything went according to plan.
2x electrics relocated
The rear body kit attached with 2K adhesive
Hinges attached
Petrol cap sized and drilled.
Not much but it`s twice.

Day 3 of the rebuild.
2 Times Relocation of the fuse boxes and the expansion tank
I wanted to put the fuse box "only" inside.
That we did not like, then we cut through all the cables and 12 "extended.
Now it fits perfectly. There are about 30 wires per car and takes 2 hours.
Cut pieces to put in between, solder, insulate and re-wrap.
Tomorrow there is a new update.
regards
Henry
Hi Chris,
yes it's just everything on the "other" side.
Now at the site, I like it also the best.
Tomorrow we start with the front end.
Love it, thanks again for the MX250 kit.

Two more images
Tomorrow we will install the lights and mount the hinges (front) of the morris minor
And then we will begin with filling and sanding. How long you need for this “because normally”
Making rapid progress Henry. Bang on target with your wiper spindle holes too!
As too how long sanding should take......you can take as long as you like! Its the bit I enjoy the most.
HI NicK,
yes it goes ahead.
the bit I put over it for the exact angle.
We want to cut out the back window on Sunday.
How wide must be the edge (all around) of the rear window?
I do not want to cut too much
Tomorrow we will match
You have ABS unit in the way, good solution moving fusebox
