The accelerator has gone through a major cut, slash and bend to allow the remote cable to control the brake bias a straight shot into the brake balance bar shaft.
Pedals are in along with the foot plates. The remote cable for the brake balance bar was really difficult to install as the cable was interfering with the accelerator pedal.

Well it's getting close to having the chassis 2 pack painted so the complete car stripped to bare bones today.

Ahh! Alas the transmission mount has never been in the perfect position so out came the grinder to have it moved 10mm into the perfect position under the gearbox so that the urethane mount will support the weight without cracking...perfection.

How many times do you have to break down and reinstall components to get the fit just right in any project however when if you are lucky and there are many hands it makes light work.

August
Another day of wisdom from the team.
It seems that your weakest hand has the best ability to feel scratches and bumps in paint.
Also Scotch-Brite 400 grit is easy to use to get the primmer finish that will just clear the lower limit for paint to make a smooth final gloss.
I guess we learn something new every day....thanks guys.
It's now into August so the sun is beating down fiercely but work goes on getting the frame and roll bar pipes ready for painting to a show car standard so water and 600 grit finish took a long time.

The cross brace for the rear of the roll bar and the suspension rear uprights received more strength.

At the same time in a different workshop the rolls bars were being finished. The hoop behind the seat will be the frame for the bulkhead to separate the driver from the rear area. The supports for the panel and rear window were welded in and brought to the yard for sanding and primering.

Work continued till after the sun went down and got most parts ready for the silver flake paint and the several lacquer coats to make it glisten to show, 'don't touch me' quality.
The scratch free pipes are all wrapped in blankets for transportation to the painters. With only a 5cm ride height I'm going to kill the first guy who puts this car into a gravel trap.
He is going to have to dig it out himself.

September
The weather is getting cooler and the chassis is back from getting sprayed to show quality.
