Having completed this on Thursday...
...I awarded myself some time on the Cup again today.
I made up patterns for the windscreen glass and took them to the glaziers to be cut. A friendly Forum member contacted me about the gearbox I had and offered to swap it for one with the correct selector orientation - I gratefully accepted (thank you Gary) and today removed all the floor before lifting the gearbox off the engine and fitting the other - there really is great space for doing this in the Cup!
Tony's ad/retard quadrant arrived and I was able to fit it neatly in place - thank you Tony!
I then started to clip in the wiring for the rear lights and hope to complete the rest tomorrow - I am really enjoying just looking at the car just now - sorry, it's been a long time coming and I like the way it has come together!
