Well after a week of working for my old firm I got to do a couple of days on the car, finally got all the induction welded up, started to weld the last bits on the exhaust and once again ran out of gas (sure someone is using my gas), only got the V band clamps to fit as it was all welded but could not get the downpipes out so quick cut and 2 V band clamps tacked in and that’s it, next job body on for last time, check bonnet still fits, engine out and paint.

Awesome! What have you done to the bonnet to make it fit over that lot?

Bonnet, what bonnet?

It would be a shame to cover up that work of art.

Still working on the bonnet, just cut out where I needed just to clear the manifold. Manifold only needs about 25mm to clear so I may just make a new scoop, looked on ebay nothing that looks like one that TVR would have used (or that I like). I have the mould I did for Micks bonnet so just a bit of work to make it fit. Will be after I get back from holl's and it gives me time to think about how I want it to look
