Plumbed in the brake and clutch reservoirs
This is where the three pound bag really starts to stretch there is just not a lot of room left here, took a bit of creative thinking to get around this one.

looking good! that's a very pretty motor!

any ideas what kind of power it'll make?

Drop dead sexy! :unibrow: It's almost a shame to hid all that detail work under the fiberglass body. Fantastic job. One question I haven't seen anyone ask... What did you use to bend all the DOM?

Keep up the great work. :hail:

With a tubing bender, actually two of them one is a Midamerican racing ez-bend 90, the other is a roll bender that I fabbed up with left overs from a old pipe bending rig.

P.S. I can't find any one to make me a body out of clear lexan

You had me at your first post and now you tell me to watch this.

Your killing me - I can't wait to see what's next.

This thread is absolute gold. How did I miss it?

Unbelievable work so far! I can't wait to see the rest of the journey.

Weekend update!
 

Okay, busy weekend but still got more work done on the car.

How not to install a clutch slave, I never fabricated this during mock up, bad idea and I payed for it big time. No fun laying under the car making measurements for parts and drilling holes with no extra space.

Also installed the GO pedal and cable nice to see everything still fit the way it did before.

Cooling nightmare
 

Now It would go with out saying that one of the more difficult systems to get working in one of these cars is the cooling system, now toss in the nightmare of the ford DOHC and you have created a monster. I hope this works, I picked up a few of those corrugated stainless hose things, they were on super mega sale. There was just no way to find all the hoses to fit this nightmare so I used them to build what I hope will work. I took it upon myself to toss the covers and cheesy hose clamps aside and bought some good ones from work. Please let me know what you think of this tubing job do you think it will work.
