Still making progress with this, slowly due to limited time available, but getting there.

Making the wiring harness for the rear lights at the moment. The handbrake still doesn't do much; I've got a third pair of ramps wedged in there as chocks, after I accidentally left the car out of gear, gave it a shove and it rolled off the ramps.

Well at least your making progress? Do you think you will be on the road this year?

I designed it and made a clay mock up but Chris did most of the actual work to shape the stainless and fibreglass.

Fitted 6 x freshly powdercoated wheels with 6 x Vredestein Sportrac 5 tyres (the extra pair of fronts went on the trailer). They are one of the best matched sets available for the DMC-12 at the moment and as a bonus they say 'giugiaro' on them.

Also Chris N welded up some stainless rear parts for the TARDIS trailer;

They look good now that they are cleaned up.

I still need to dremel the cut outs for the lights, bolt in some support beams, trim the inside walls and mount them on the back of the trailer.

P.S. He says sorry he couldn't make Eurotec, too busy trying to finnish off bits of work prior to heading over to the US.
