:shock: wow, this looking brilliant, all you need is davemb2's running gear out of his K26 MB2....... WACK11111WACK11111WACK11111

I was thinking more H2B but K swap could work. Where did you say the car was, Manchester? ;):lol:

Its worth the waiting by the looks of it, when do you think it will be painted?

I'll need it back for a week to remove the engine and any last bits of trim then it's into the painters. They still have a few little bits to do so it will be a few weeks away :cry: Quality is top rate so far, but then these guys build BTCC cars so they are pretty good to begin with [smitten.gif]

Fuel cell cut out is finished, dropped through the chassis but left a little clearance for safety

Battery mount is fabricated, just needs to be cut and welded to the chassis

Next job is finding a set of wheels and tyres that will clear everything. Not a simple job when I'm looking to use racing slicks of unusual sizes :twisted:

Not much room up front with the current 16x7 ET50's, I'm looking at 16x8 ET38 with 210/625R16 slicks. Wheels should clear but tyres might cause a clearance issue on the arches.

Be worth getting the wheels sorted before you finish off any painting you want doing, I think you'll at the very least need the arches rolling but you can buy the gear to do it off the net for about £75!

Be interesting to see it with a wheel test fitted if you have one around!

I'm selling 16" Rota Spec R but they are ET45 so probably no good to you!
