That looks like some neat cutting there......fine grinding skills from the man. Love the way there is a permanent cigarette hanging out of Bart's mouth

So what's next then?

Still got to get the gearbox and prop shaft off then just before it goes the glass will come out. While we have been dismantling it we have been looking into all the areas that we can save weight on the new car and also what will be involved. Alan has done a great job with cutting the wing off. He plans to use it as a practise for fitting the body kit.
He has spent most of time under the car without a cigarette but as soon as I pick up the camera, there it is:sifone:

even thow we are in the middle of stripping the old car we do have a shopping list of bits that we are looking to get for the new car and even thow were not rushing to buy stuff right now if it comes up at a cheap price we will be looking to get them.

what we have so far is
1. body kit
2. sapphire cosworth bonnet (free:))
3. sapphire front grill to alloy more air in

Al. If you want to do cadwell there are a couple of things I need to know and things we need to plan for.

1. What shift pattern are you working the week between cadwell and Ford Fair
2. We have to be at FF so any issues at cadwell we have 1 week to sort
3. If Neil does TA his car will take priority over ours for any work before FF. (You may need to assist Gordon if we need any work).
4. it's going to cost

1 not sure of my pattern as ive left it at work
2. 1 week really not enuf time to repair car is no real hard testing would not be carried out
3. as you say niel will take priority of us and would put us out FF
4.

Al your reasons for concern are all valid and right. I think we could benefit in the long run from being there. You will however need to draw up a couple more designs prior to FF.

If it's just seat time you need at Cadwell without risking the Sierra, I'd be happy for Bart to use the BM if that helps

All in a good cause
