    Simply Lovely Darren. You must be pretty happy with that!
    Just like you I continue to study & learn and after reading your update it looks like I better order my 73/74 RSR oil tank soon -> fitting may become a bit of a challenge in my case too....

    From my understanding the bracket for the bumper/wing support is fitted at the bottom of the wing and goes over the oil pressure console so no issue there and I believe the oil tank is the same or similar with the lower bumper cut away to accommodate it. The earlier cars also didn't have the later G-series support bracket that we had to cut away. I'll email a couple of pics I have.

    Cheers,

    Thanks Rick, I’m really pleased with how the exhaust has turned out. They always looks sexy and clean when there’s no heat requirement to bother with!

    The spec is to Nick Fulljames’s and Ryan’s design based on their many years of development work on these cars.

    Not only am I promised a system that breaths to the maximum and adds horse power but also one that sounds as sweet as can be! Can’t wait to hear the noise!!

    Cheers,

    Decided I'd asked for a little too wide flange on the front grill and although it looked good we reduced the width, gently using a DA whilst sandwiched between two metal plates...



    ...big improvement and much closer to the original....







    ...looking good and now fitted ....
