bonnet progress,
got about half the bonnet welded up today, and 90% tacked together,

i did majority of the tacking and very little amount of welding, mainly the areas they needed a little touch up after the weld was ground down

probably but he didn't complain, and the triangle gap?

if thats what you're refeering to i cut the angles for the front section to get it sitting correct then after that i had to cut the edges down so they were a straight edge

bf xr6, dash, and centre console, and door trims, with black carpet, custom hood lining with matching custom leather door inserts and 50/50 leather velour seats in mactching trim

motor:
07 bf xr6 motor, still deciding where to go with this, will have twin turbos hanging off the side of it though oppions?


driveline: t56 with button clutch, undecided on diff if i'll go solid centre of au irs oppions?

brakes:
355mm front rotors 330 rear rotors
6 piston front brakes and 4 piston rears

planning to buy a writen off bf xr6 turbo around this time next year

I reckon that XB/EL hybrid bonnet will look good when it's done. I can source an XB bonnet so it's tempting to join the trend and give it a go - maybe these summer holidays I will.
