Speechless here... Well, other than to say "I'm speechless."

Dion - you've hit it out of the park. Just beautiful.

Almost there Dion! Congrats and nice work! And with that air horn, it will surely makes anyone blocking infront of you will immediately move away!

Kudos Chris @Tygaboy . Noel @ndfrigi working on finding the other horn that compliments this one. Different Hz. Trying to be like a GT in sound (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) if I can’t match the performance!
@TonyA I’m home tomorrow. Feel free to swing by anytime.
Cheers

Those clear fog light covers probably add 2mph top end from better aero (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

@TonyA swung by this morning. His LE sounded & looked great as usual! Nice time catching up on things. So appropriate that an “orange “ car shows up on Halloween!!
Thanks Tony! Enjoy the drives.

Thanks Dion , pictures don’t do your car justice absolutely stunning. It was worth the risk of driving in the rain (which held off) to see it in person. Can’t wait to follow you and Dave around in the spring because I certainly will be in the dust.

Added my rallye style vent perspex triangle windows I made. Along with that bloody wonderful seal we all love to install. I will say Glycerin helped tremendously. Only drawback is that it drips everywhere and does not seem to evaporate too quickly. I’m still cleaning it off the windup window!

Vent installed. Found them on an aircraft website. They are functional.

Next up I need to modify my oil return tube a wee bit more. It’s making contact with the shift rod. Approximately 1-2mm needs to be persuaded to dimple in. Then I need to take out the rear window again. :-( I did not catch it at first but the bugger dropped off one of the spacers and settled…crooked! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) I also need to repair one of the defrost
grid lines . So just as well that it comes out to make it right.
Cheers

I love your attention to detail. And it makes me feel better about my own OCD. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smash.gif)
