Thanks Nigel do you remember that bit when I said electrical was my weakness ! Your in depth description and drawing has just terrified me. I have not even considered a relay ? My plan is ignition live through inertia switch and then straight to pump. Do I need a relay ? What is the function. ? Is it likely there is one unused in fuse box? Really looking forward to catching up with all of you this fuel  pump is my final hurdle bonnet is coming back from Bodyshop next week. Then it is  time to drive ! 

If you need relays and cable I have loads that got stripped from mx5

It's your car taking ownership of you, by branding you.

Looks like 2b to me

Booked in

Thought it might be rager, but don't think so ar no collage tubes

That is brave 

The only chassis I know with round tubes is the Robin Hood 2B (2B=tubey), so by fluke, you've come to the right place - lots of 2B experts on here.

Lots of parts still available from https://kitspares.co.uk/ 

Good luck!!

The rager was made about the same time. Been trying to find photos of but no luck

I solved the problem of water getting under the front with press studs by sticking a length of rubber d-section on top of the screen surround.  It was just enough to keep the wind and rain out.  I can't remember where I had it from (I think I bought it at a show) but CBS do some similar    https://www.carbuilder.com/uk/8mm-x10mm-hollow-d-section-self-adhesive

Had the same, have removed it during upgrades as was looking tatty. Might try something simular on the roof instead.

It's probably easier to make something to raise your feet than to lower the pedal box.  I have size 12 feet so I was OK with the pedal position in my 2B - I then had a carpeted board about 20mm thick that we dropped into the footwell when my daughter drove it.  I guess you could call it adjustable  ?????? 

Have gone floor mounted clutch and brake with the upgrade to mx5 engine and box.

Long time no see. Good to see back on the road. Just a shame there are so few  shows to meet up at nowadays.

Winter mods finished just waiting to get it set up on the rolling Road on the 5th Jan. Photo album of the conversion are here. https://www.amazon.co.uk/photos/share/M4DnC4AjGEeV3HeLzKVylCwJwRV6Mx5Wrm0HZ91KP97

Hey Michael, did you ever sell this? I notice it’s still not taxed or MOTd?

It was sold and is back up for sale on one of the Facebook groups. Up for 4k if I remember correctly
