As a matter of interest, how easy was it to remove the doors ? did you have to use a special tool to remove the door pins ?

This looks like a great build.

Love all the motorsport touches on it so far.
Looking forward to more progress.

Its making me want to go do some work on my car.
Need to order some more parts though, being poor is rubbish lol

Keep up the good work!

Yes, looking good, very interested to see latest pictures. I still keep going back looking at the old ones.

I believe many pumapeople do the same as me and check to see how it's going, but don't post anything as we are in awe at the amount of detail and work.

Your car is a true in depth fully unique one of a kind project. Please keep it going!

cheers
Andy

and then sealed by an MSA scrutineer. then i can get my funky head on
and cams timed up. you'l notice theres a picture of my sump baffle,

Warren would be able to say re the sump as I think he has seen or poked around most 1600 parts :)
I see what you mean I read it quick ;)
Sounds like lots of exhillaration planned B)
