Few updates, been swamped with customer cars, so mine takes a back seat as usual!

Had to look back at what I have already posted, and left off at the fuel cell cage. Made the hold down structure:

And at that same time, fit the trans and engine. The driveshaft doesn't clear the top of the loop, so I have to cut it out and extend it.

Which required a new tunnel:
