    If you think that's bad - just wait 'til you get to teflon fuel lines and fittings!!
    Looking good though - can't wait to see the car on the road. In fact, I'll be up in your neck of the woods again in July - my daughter accepted a place at Seattle University, so we need to attend an orientation session and will likely be in the area a lot more often going forward

    P.S. Just noticed the brand - so was that price with or without the family discount

    As suggested by Paul, I found a wiper assembly from a Ferrari 348 and will be using it for my wiper system. Still waiting for one missing part, then I need to drill the correct hole pattern in the wiper motor bracket and start figuring out the wiper timing.

    Re: Getting off my arse

    Update, got the driver side (USA) door latch mechanism fitted. Test fitted the door window, then realized that I had the Litton/CAE/Napier Sport window, got out the Lister Bell window and test fitted it (see photos) much better fit. I have all the brake lines and clutch line done, missing one fitting (on order). Fuel lines, filters and pump ordered. A lot of little things need tweaking. Hope to hear it run in about a month.

    Well the brakes are done and not leaking. Working on the fuel system, the photo shows the fuel pump in place, the two panels above the pump are where the filters will be installed. Need to re-install the e-brake and route the cable shifter. Also need to finalize the cooling system routing.
