So 1, how have I never seen this thread and 2, your in Swindon!! I want a peak!!

 

Thread's been quiet for a while as I've been busy with work and family over the last few months.  Fuel cell has arrived, so I'll post pics when I can, and engine is about to go off for a rebuild.  Also picked up a VTi-S skirt and lip set for it, but not sure I want to fit it yet.  Car is locked down tight somewhere in Swindon, might be open to bribery for a sneaky look

 

Amazing, I post a link up to a thread on facebook and back to the top it goes! :wink:

 

 

Lol, I had noticed :)  Just need to get back into the build now the evenings are lighter for longer.

Okay - good weather and a few days off meant I could roll the car out into the open!

 

Plan for the day was to check the fuel cell, check the fit of the perspex windows and make a restart on the wiring.

Removed the door locks, then stripped the central locking parts off and refitted the locks.  Every little helps!

Also got rid of the last of the door electrics and wiring up front

 

Okay - fuel cell check

Fits nicely, only 10l smaller than stock but it's inside the car and a damn site stronger!

Up until now I've not really tried to fit the windows to the car so a quick check to see how they go in

Left the seal out for now but its a good fit.  Plastics4performance even painted the edges of the panels to hide the bonding!

Last job was to get on with the wiring.  Front near side wing first -

And an hour later, all re-connected and ready to be sheathed.

Hopefully it won't be as long between being able to work on the car next time!

Amazing work there! Bet you're glad to have gotten some done after such a long time!?

 

Were the perspex windows easy to source? Did the place know what a Civic Aerodeck was? :lol:
