Nothing too exciting but the car is now being put back together. Picked up some NOS parts on eBay.it with the use of Google translate.

Believe it or not the car is coming together and I hope to have a decent update with pics soon. The hold up at the moment is with the HiSpec callipers but that will hopefully be resolved soon.
In the meantime here is the 4 pot calliper mount coming together for the inboard brakes.

By my time scale your doing very well, and all the little details just absorb time. Keep us posted as most interested.

That looks a pretty serious piece of kit.
Did you make the angled manifolds all up yourself?

They came with the engine. It is all Lahoma Engineering (John Sismey) stuff.

Ground to a bit of a halt I'm afraid.
When you say you will be down there, do you mean Brunswick or Australia?
