The inspiration

And I'm aiming for something like this - http://www.pistonheads.com/sales/3567917.htm

But not that cost ( and not using plastic extractor fan ducting!)
Merlin has made some brackets for the AP  front calipers (which are even badged Lotus :-)   )

There's a bit of room for bigger discs under the Minilites.....


 Dash being roughed out

 The start...!


Big valve head with twin 45s

Removable steering wheel.
Merlin's adjustable top mounts (rear)

Here's the blog my for my Lotus Elan 26R (replica...?) rebuild. I've owned the car for a couple of years but because of other pressures and ill health, progress (on my part) has been slow.

The car will be a hillclimb and sprint car and I plan to run it in the Welsh Sprint & Hillclimb Championship.
