One week to go

Popped into the factory today and they have started to assemble the parts for my car, couldn't see the chassis, engine etc as they were in the other half of the factory and they have been painting the floor and it was still wet.

The big box is the exhaust, on the floor are diff, battery, aluminium panels, wide track wish bone kit. The windscreen is lying across the rails between the cardboard boxes, (it looks very small) then there are boxes and crates with all sorts of stuff in. Looks like the first part of the build process will be examining the contents, sorting all the boxes and working out how to store in the garage.

Hopefully I can get the the factory again next week to see how the collection is progressing.

I have also modified the order to include the front and rear anti roll bars, having looked through the build guide its looks like it makes sense to fits these during the build. For the front anti roll bar at least it says that it should be fitted before the engine installation and it requires modification to the brake pipe routing, I'd planned to add them at some point so it looked like it could make life easier in the long run.
