Just find some fabric you like & make a simple slip cover to revamp them a bit.

That would work. Good idea

Gearbox mounting

 

[Panky]

Nah - that's a bit of art

Shame it's gonna be underneath where nobody will see it

 

[PaulJL]

It's in. The whole weight is now hung in the van. Looks a bit low but time will tell. A set of new springs and a sump guard may be needed.

 

[Panky]

That lump should be on show, it's looks great, just forget about any lowering ideas you may have had

 

[PaulJL]

It's low enough already tbh. I agree about showing off the engine though. Might need a clear engine cover

 

[S0updragon]

Looks great. Well done team!

 

[PaulJL]

Baby steps.... But its looking amazing

 

[PaulJL]

OK. Tim is back on it. The air filter doesn't fit now as the engine ended up in a slightly different position
A solution was thought up... By Tim, the k&n top filter is still being used but will be accompanied by 2...yes 2 K&n cone filters.

Starship K&Nterprise Mk II

Tim has done an amazing job. Definetely something to show off

 

[PaulJL]

Sweet

 

[Panky]

You have ten seconds to comply

Looks amazing, no restriction on that

Each of the cones are rated to 450bhp and the filter top will help too

ED209 would be jealous lol. Excellent!

Second hand custom radiator from a hot rod.

Got the tyres off the new rims ready to take to Tim. Bit of a glimpse of how shiny they once were..

 

[PaulJL]

Nope.. They won't fit without fairly major work to the rims or the rear arches and would need spacers on the front.
Change of plan. Going for 15" steelies with the rears banded to around 8" wide
