Mike's Zero Build

Rear wings
My next challenge was to fit the rear wings.
So I marked and drilled the holes.
I then marked out the holes on the body then drilled and then fitted the wing.
Does'nt it look good!
Fuel pressure regulator
With the Jenveys fitted I fitted the fuel regulator.
I don't know if it will stay there yet, I might need move it.
Jenveys
I got the Jenveys today and made a start on fitting them.
The pipes just to the left of the engine are the fuel lines (if you stop them there they just need fuel hose to fit to the Jenveys).
This was a fun bit to do....
Fitted the Jenveys and the fuel lines to them.
Oil pressure sender
The next job I did was to fit the oil pressure sender and sort out some of the wiring.
Alternator
As the space on the proper side of the engine is tight the only other option was to place the alternator on this side.
So Myself and a fellow builder made up a plate to attach to.
Happy birthday to me... :o)
Making light of things
With the rear panel fitted I then fitted some of the rear lights.
Dashing
Over the past couple of weeks I made the dash and wired it up.
Rear Panel
Next was the rear panel (loads of fun!)
Take a lot of care on this as It takes a fair bit of time to get right, and the part from the top of the rear to the side panel
really
is a nightmare to do.
Boot boxing
With the tank in place I had a go at fitting some panels in the boot.
I bought some sheet aluminium, made a template and this is the result.
Both shock turrets plated with access holes for removal of the bolts later (Should the shock need replacing).
Fuel tank
The next job I done was to fit the fuel tank.
Engine mount part 2
This is the lug that needs to be removed.
And now with it removed.
As you can see with the lug removed the mount bolts closer to the engine.
