Been assembling the rear end today
Fitted the brake caliper brackets to the uprights.
Drivers side
Passenger side
Then done a small amount of work to the front end, fitted the arms to the steering rod and secured the rubber boots.
Hoping to get my rear hubs back tomorrow, then the brakes can be fitted.

Small update of the weekends work, nothing spectacular just a spot of painting, also fitted a set of longer wheel studs to suit the Pro Race 1.2
wheels.
The rear hubs are now back from being machined and are painted but not dry, hence the lack of photos.

Rear hubs and brake caliper brackets fitted, driveshaft nuts need to be torqued up once the brakes are operational.
Rear brake discs and calipers fitted and it started to look like this
With my mate, Decka, acting as a temporary wheel nut a wheel was tried on the back, starting to look quite wide now
The side panels were trimmed for the final time, or so i thought, i now think i'll merge the steering rack hole with the front lower wishbone
hole, as most people do.
The passenger side front suspension was then built up
Drivers side
Took the nose cone off to fit it in the garage, need to move my vice stand to get the car further back... job for another day
Thanks to Decka for the assistance today, I'm dead happy with the kit, it's really starting to look like a car now

This afternoon i took the suspension off the front of the car and decided to do the final trimming to the side panels
Before
After
All the steering/suspension fitted back to the car again. The washers in the upper wishbone mounting brackets are temporary until i get some bushes
knocked up.
I done a quick little job while the side panel was off and fitted the master cylinder.
