There will be enough work stripping the falcon, making brackets and general gathering of parts to keep you busy until March.

The starter motor comes out through the footwell and the carpet will need to be made so the cover can be removed.

As I lowered the floor 45mm the mufflers had to be custom made. The mufflers are those four pieces of pipe behind the xpipe. Scott from Scotts Rods in Ipswich came up this idea. The pipes are about 3.5 inches dia and a section of an auger is welded in. This idea appears to work well as the noise level is about 92db.

Its looks more finished than it is. All the latches for the doors, boot, bonnet, bonnet locating pins etc etc etc and the list of little jobs seems to get longer. Hoping to have it to the painters around April/May.
