Cool. Never seen such low mounting points on the chassis for the lower arms. I hope they won't cause a ground clearance issue, assuming they are there to improve some kind of geometry?

Yeh engineering this thing, the mounts on the chassis arnt any lower than the mounts on the diff so I presume it should be ok, that work was done by McDonald bros so I'm relying on them to have done it probably lol

I did the chassis extensions and tied the rear rails into the sills as the engineer said to do.

Very nice Teffa.  I'm curious as to what type of accelerator cable you will be running.  Reason I ask is it seems you have welded up the hole in the firewall for factory one (or is it just masked up?).  I did this also, but mine was a mistake, and now I have to drill a hole in the new paint.  Cheers Ron

Haha mate I saw you driving this thing up Glenfern Rd a little while ago ahhhhh... making some noise to say the least. I was in stitches. Ballsy operator.

This car sounded really sharp.

Very nice rate of progress too.
