We haven't stated yet actually but all in good time.
It's a bit complicated but we basically have some backing from a 'silent' sponsor who wants to help out a mutual friend of mine and his who has started his own business buying and selling a particular car marque that's close to my heart so it's his name going on the car.
He's also designing the cars livery so nothing has been finalised. We just know the basic idea.
It sounds a bit ott but I think it'll look pretty cool if we can pull it off.

^^^^^ from that description it could be me, flogging all sorts of tat and insisting on a ruddy great big Failsport logo on the side of the car, with a small ginger man riding an angle grinder on the bonnet ...
Or is it Stealthsport?

Stealthsport? Is that the 'company' that is 'run' by Louis Spence off of Pineapple Dance Studio?
Failsport will of course get a mention on the car though. I'm sure we can find room for a sticker saying 'supplied by Failsport' on the underside of the subframe or inside the passenger door...

Now now Ollie thats harsh! To 'run' a 'company' you need products to trade :quiet:

Note the lack of dents in the roof Chris...:rasp:
Im dead chuffed with the results. Turned around in under 4 working days as well.......it would have been painted Friday but we were short of that particular paint (two pack semi matt black).
We also removed a considerable amout of sound deadening tar and unwanted metal work, most notably the reinforcement strip in the drivers footwell and various brackets. These we removed the proper way, by drilling out the spot welds rather than just taking an angle grinder to them (much to Mikes disappoinment)
Anyway, its now back into Tom's and James' domain so (hopefully) serious progress gets made over the next 7/10 days!

That is all.

Indeed. You should be able to see the two holes in the box sections. Tom is making up two L shaped mounts that will then bolt directly to the seat side mounts on either side.
The seating position is made to measure to our considerably lanky frames, hence why we've moved the seating position, steering wheel and gearstick position further back.

Looks good from the pics on my phone. Hardest part is done now so just a case of bolting away!

Nothing wrong with an angle grinder Ollie.

Oh i've nothing against a bit of grinding Tony.....I've attacked our doors with one. I also took an airsaw and a Dremel to the front bumper last night (a la Nick) and it now weighs the thin end of fook all.
I stopped short of cutting holes out of the number plate area though....

Yeah not a fan of the bumper holes. what did you manage to skim off the bumper to make it ligter? Presumably the bottom piece that goes under the car?
