Glad you like it, even though its got the wrong type of engine :)
Mark, no charge for repairs, I'm more than happy to do a bit of maintenance in exchange for the use of it *wink* Just need to get the jockey wheel working 100% (its now straight (er :) )!!
Dave, yes please it might be as well to pre-empt any problems..
and yes its a replacement roof, the whole roof was removed during the cage fabrication.

Progress has been a lot slower than i hoped but things are going ok ish*wink*
Made a start in the boot cleaning up the old pump bracket, stripped the rear loom and removed / added wires as needed



Ran the pipes inside and p clipped into place



Decided to use my steel boot, despite the extra weight, drilled some holes, got sick of that*surprised*



Still lots to do, can't get a good position for the wiper motor at all*angry*

excellent progress pics rich, quick question on the bulkhead box, how has the upper dash rail where the vents come through been cut back?

cheers

You mean the vents for the windscreen demister?
If so it's been chopped back so theres maybe half an inch of it left, it needs a good tidy, its purely 'as chopped' :(
