Thank you I am only learning to weld as I go along I got a welder when I started this project had a friend weld up the chassis and all the important bits and I have played and done bits as I have gone along.

Yes I will be putting a prop catcher in the ducting is just to give me an idea of size so I can mock up the tunnel, as the car is quite narrow I would like to keep it as small as possible thanks

Managed to get some time today on the car bad weather love it. so have made the gearbox cover and prop shaft cover so moving on and can see some good progress, and in the week I have made the second door frame. The next job is to join the two half of the bonnet together.

Hi had a tough couple of months so not much done, but have manage to join the two halves of the bonnet together, door frames hung and have made some side vents to help cool the engine bay. Hope to start the door skins soon if I can find some time.

Over the last feu months I have decided to change the engine and box as at the start I was set on an American engine but was talked out of this, so I have gone back to where I wanted to be at the start but the long way round. I have got my self a Dodge 318 engine and manual box and a back axel, this has resulted in some major change to chasse but now back on all four wheels so progress of sorts. That's the forth engine I have tried so that where I am going to stay and now I feel I am in the right place with what I have so back to getting on with the car but sure it will through a curved ball at me some time soon. The chasse was split in two and widened by a 100mm back frame changed new engine and box mounts made and new rear suspension so not to much have to have fun some times.
