Today's report is brought to you by the word "Partial"...

On Saturday afternoon, I stripped the remaining interior out of the car. Then on Sunday Darren and I set about trial fitting the rollcage ready for Terry to weld up any stress plates next weekend. We now have some questions for Cheshire Racing & Restorations concerning the rollcage, but nothing too drastic. So a partial success there.

Darren looped into the ignition wire from the steering column, ready for the fitment of the ignition cut-out switch in the dashboard. We also planned the route of the pull cable, so that's partially completed.

We did some thinking about the trunking of the extinguisher cabling and pipework, and fitted the extinguisher itself in place. We also fitted a bracket under the dash pointing at the driver ready to take the interior extinguisher nozzle. So there was another task partially completed.

We also checked out the positioning of the racing seat, and decided we either need another cross-member welded in the interior or sandwich stress plates welded underneath the car for the rear mounts of the seat.
