Really looking the biz!

Very nice!

I like your shock towers. Been trying figure out something like that myself. How are they working out?

dunno i;ve not driven it yet lol!!! It's similar to the slamwerks beams (although mine is thicker!) and can't see a reason for it not to work. If i was to change it - i;d make the top mounting point about half an inch towards the rear of the car as the shock isn;t 100% vertical (pretty damn close though)

Cool just read through the thread looking good, Volksworld friday.....!!!!
see you there!

Well my bug made it to the show :) Had a great weekend - met some great people and the sun was shining aaaaalllll weekend! :D

just need shocks now and engine setting up by RNJ Morotsport.......however the bug spat its dummy out last week

the new hydraulic clutch set up (although is now 4 years old as the project has been going on for so long!) decided to ditch all the the fluid inside the tunnel of the chassis :( ive flushes the tunnel as best i can and looks to have got away with minimal paint damage. I took the cylinder out (which it turns out i can only JUST manage with the body on!) and is scored.....so have ordered a new updated kit from saco performance.....which will be with me in 2 weeks!

soo now its just clutch and shocks......... :)

lets hope its ready for spa!!!

It sure looks extremely nice!
Deffi hope to see you at Spa!

Very nicely done! I love the wheels and color combo! An almost perfect clone of the license plates too.

Looks awesome! Question: What axles did you use with the aluminum trailing arms?

Thanks guys

I will definitely be at spa, hopefully in the bug but if not, il be in my 70 bay. Il keep an eye out for you wally!

Axles are 944 items to match the arms

looking good and looking forward to geting it in the workshop to fire her up and dial the motor in.

Dean, did you just get the MC from Saco or a rebuild kit?

I keep looking at alternatives to the Saco for in the tunnel and they are not too common. BMW 3 series or one from CBSonline are my current choices. And if you don't mind me asking how much was it with post and tax?

Car is looking good fella, you'll be done soon and reaping the rewards of all the hard work :)
