SVA proofing the exhaust
The bar will be bolted up behind the fog / reverse lights
to finish is off a nice coat of paint
boot floor - need to see if we can find some under construction photos. This was a lot more work that it looks from the pictures!
There is wood construct underneath that props up the floor, bit like a jigsaw. This provides a nice solid base for it to sit on. The holes for the seatbelts and fuel pipes are rounded off with a router. The front end is also rounded off. The floor is in two pieces which means it can be taken out with the tub still in place. Its bolted at the front and will be wood screwed to the frame below. There's also two side piece that will be velcro'd in.
Mirros and E marked repeaters to pass SVA
Rear view with rubber surround, you can see that much in the mirror so we're experimenting with a small convex mirror, dunno if this is SVA passable but it certainly give a much better view of the surroundings!
Blue! New coolant hose specifically made for the M20
Bonnet off is a one bolt job!
The other new coolant hose goes from the header to the front of the block with T piece off it to go up to the header tank.
Not so easy to see it but here it goes into the header tank and heater.
Hidden under here the pipe goes up to the thermostat housing.
