jaffa is moving in the right direction slowly :)
cage is now 100% welded / bolted in drivers seat is in and fixed

and most importantly she fired up and run, not for long though as there is nothing past the manifold and fuel pipe in a plastic can but she runs and idles so over the moon
push button start and fuel pump swith are in and pump fitted onto inner wing
still neeed to do a bit of tidying up of the wiring and chop out what is not needed
i cant wait till it moves :D

a few pics i snapped this evening on the phone

it was needed jason, hearing it bark was a bit special after the wiring issues
it was something simple in the end and nothing i had done wrong , the bloody switch in the key barrel is shagged, i got dash lights but no switch for the starter

and the berg cup arches have arrived :) just need to get onto weller for the rims and order either and itg or pipercross sausage airfilter for the carbs and make a backing plate for it
