:mrgreen: Yeah it's Looking very good in person !! Bonnet Fitted an Adjusted,I even added hood pins as a secondary catch it took about 1hr organising everything, as i dont want what happened the last time to happen again.I know mostly race cars use them but i have no other choice to drill a perfectly new bonnet to put them in.The whole roof was painted because it had several dents to the front near the windscreen.I have some a15 progress pictures to put up.So here are Pics of what happened that day!

Ok time to take out the struts.

so the struts are out,i have to carry the hubs an disc to machine shop so rotors can slide over the hubs.Blue arrows indicate where the hubs need machining down.
