        wow! Epic build dude.

        Where do you get your parts from? Know where to get door rubbers, window scrapers, bumper end caps etc??

                            so to update a little it was time to change a few things 1st up some more chrome

                            wipers and some caps



                            I needed to go a little lower so i had to notch the drivers side you can see the rub marks on the shaft


                            so i stripped that side out



                            what the chassis looked like


                            i then marked out the ares and cut all the way through the chassis leg, cut metal tube to size and began welding it in



                            i also welded a plate above it for extra strength


                            primed it and seam sealed it


                            and painted it

                              Next up was the fuel pump i was running a pump and accumilator in the boot as my lines run inside the car, this made the car smell of fuel so time to change it all

                              the old pump


                              i needed to change the fuel tank to a gti tank as it was running the old 1.1 tank with pick up pump in the tanks
                              so i sourced a gti tank


                              bought a new bosch pump this one is good to run upto 500 bhp



                              out came the old tank in with the new one


                              i made up a mounting bracket for the pump and another for the filter and added teflon braided hose


                              no more bad fuel smells
