Offereing up the engine to the chassis for the first time. It did not look good. Our initial reaction was that the statter motor, sump and oil filter would all fall foul of the chassis. Initial idea was to cit out some of the cross member, marked with a blue felt tip line. (105)

The boot lid. Now that the shape follows the correct profile of the car, I wanted to make a recess to put a badge. This idea came about when I won an eBay auction for a team lotus badge. I thought that I liked the idea, so plan to reduce its size by 1/3, and make a recess to locate it at the bottom the boot lid. As is usual with this project, there was more to that initially thought, as we had to increase the lip, so that we had a bigger area in which to put the badge. (241)
I have been lead to believe that Recaro are the best seats, so, I have acquired a pair of barely used Recaro seat from the defunct Ronart Lightning project, which will be perfect for my car (obviously, need to be recovered) This is a project in itself - we managed to lower the seat mountings by a couple of inches, and cut away a bit of the sill of the car, to allow a seat user to gain access to the seat controls at the side of the seat,

Dashboard - work in progress. The idea is to copy the concept of the original 1974 Lotus Elite. I want to be able to see real wood, and this is one job that I can do myself!! Her, one can see the white plastic sheeting which Mick made to take the air from the heater to the air vent in the middle of the dashboard.
The panels have now received their first coat of the Upol product respray, which is known as a polyester spray filler. A couple of coats are applied, after which the various surface defects can be seen. Areas can be flatted, and pinholes can be filled with filler. Several coats are applied in total until the required surface is produced (252)
We have to make small changes to the profile of the boot lid, and also the vertical rear edge. Here we are in the process of building on the original surface to get the desired shape by using body filler. 28 March 2007 (230)

This is the Excel Marina near the exhibition centre. Moving my way back through East London now towards City Airport.
Was hoping to get up on the bridge/walk-way to get shots of Docklands and the O2, but it was shut... I kind of expected it to be. This was my back-up shot and I think it come out quite well.
Its a 10 shot image (2x5) - so quite a few less than the last, which was kinder on my laptop. :)
I tried another from the other side, but I think the repetition in the image is confusing Photoshop's Photomerge function because it's not coming out very well at all. Maybe need to try another program.
