veeerrryyy slowly, still need an engine and box, rear bodywork (where the hell do you find rear bodywork for a 1968 car?)
Hopefully I'll get it up to AHS soon to get started. Im being slowed by money as I'm getting a sportscar ready for next season as well |

So how are people progressing with their race preparations?
Mine has taken a bashing, unlikely I'm going to make the first round now.... Maybe the 3rd |

Where to begin...
I still have an engine in bits, with other bits still to arrrive, no carbs as yet an exhaust that looks like it was made by a YTS pipe fitter on their first day (works tho so I might have to use it as is), still got to finish the front suspension which I cant do until the car is back on it's wheels, which will not happen until I get the engine........ Not to mention I havent finished routing the oil pipes/cooler, wiring loom and to top it all when I finally get it on it's wheels I have to track everyting in and check the car for squareness..... Plus I would like to test drive it before racing... |

Have been doing other work on it. I'm thinking that at this stage its probably better to get a car built and on track rather than spending time on FEA...

The Ari is still stored at Alans
 The big plans for new bodywork, new paint, and an engine rebuild have turned into a fitted kitchen and a dining room!  Still gotta keep the other half happy! Might have to miss the first bit of the season but you never know!!
