Inadequate length bolts

Luckily in the massive bag of assorted fixings there were some special 3/4 length nuts that I assume are specifically to fix this problem. Surely it would be simpler to provide 5mm longer bolts!

Edit - This was a running theme throughout the build. A good quote from pro cobra builder Dave Brookes - "A kit car is a collection of parts that almost fit together"

Front Suspension 2

Brakes still do do but all springy/rocking/moving bits are fitted. Setup of toe and camber is done later with full car weight on. I've also noticed we appear to be missing a steering rack

Front Suspension 1

At last, after numerous days painting questionable blue, front suspension is about half done

Weekend Rest

Sadly not much progress at the weekend due to being a ill, organised my tools and put a shelf up to get stuff of the floor, that was about it

Mega rear assembly progress

I'll admit there is a lack of driveshafts but it can almost sit without axle stands! Just followed the build manual which is very good for the chassis build stage. Flicking through the manual, later sections are a bit woolly with sweeping statements like "fit part x" and no other explanation but that's part of the fun!
