Well managed to get the seats in the car this weekend, picked up a set of used bucket seats complete with Ford Ka subframes so with a lot of grinding, cutting, bending and bolting we have managed to get them into the car now.
Also gave the car another coat of silver paint so the interior is pretty much complete now except for a roll cage.

Have been working our way through the car and been replacing all the tired old suspension bushes with nice new ones to try and stiffen up the handling a bit.

All this work is making me want to get out in the thing and drive it again soon!!

Yes mate there has been a lot of hard work gone into it.

Have got a set of subframe bushes to go on next which looks like a nightmare job as it looks like i need to take the subframe off. :cry:

Hey mate, what are you doing about de-misting the windscreen as it looks like you've removed the heater system?

I'm going down the route of a heated windscreen but that
