opelmantagsi Posted January 7, 2014 Share Posted January 7, 2014 Just had a refresh look through the thread, Full credit to you mate, it's come a long way and your doing it right so it's going to be a stunning motor when it's done. Would be interested to know how many hours you have put into it, I thnk I am up at about 2500hrs on mine and I am well behind where you are now.

opelscott22 Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 Thanks people! Ally your comments do wonders for the motivation. Derek, Ive got no idea how many hours are in this, if I was charging £20 an hour theres no way I could afford it thats for sure... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opelscott22 Posted January 9, 2014 Author Share Posted January 9, 2014 Discovered a wee issue last night. The passenger wing fouls the door when its half open, would eventually srape the paint off. not clever. So last night was, wing off, attack the offending area with a dremel, (ouch!) and repaint the edge of the wing.... i havent been into the garage yet today to check the mess!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

opelscott22 Posted January 14, 2014 Author Share Posted January 14, 2014 Thanks Kev! Well after waiting nearly 6 months to get my engine crane back Ive given in and bought another! Never lend out tools.... Managed to get the engine in on my own though, only chipped a wee bit off paint but it easily touched up. Glad to finally have it in! When I get back to it Ill be finishing the wiring, then onto fuel lines then exhaust so I can fire it up! Looking forward to that day! 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drew Posted January 30, 2014 Share Posted January 30, 2014 regarding the spoiler issue, chris renolds has a genuine 400 fiberglass one on his prototype 400 and from what i remember it fitted straight on and looks and fits right but finding another is impossible although chris has a spare . but they fit perfect from what i remember 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opelmantagsi Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 A carbon fibre one would be seriously nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
opelscott22 Posted January 31, 2014 Author Share Posted January 31, 2014 Id love to get hold of a good fiberglass one, Ill keep buying lotto tickets though, more luck with that I think!! I thought I had done well finding the original unused 400 one, didnt see that issue coming!!! Never mind, even if it has to stay the car will go just as well with the wonky spoiler.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaggy Posted March 7, 2014 Share Posted March 7, 2014 Looking the dugs dooo dah's Scott, You seem to be getting there with it. I bought another one for spares if you are needing anything, The problem being its a hatch but some things may be of use to you. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
