Thank you, due to cost I will stay with twins 40's for now. Probably change engine at some point in the future then I will fit bike carbs.

I am fitting a xflow to a zero and was going to fit twin 40 dellorto's. Is there a problem or are you looking for more speed/power? Regards Mark

Good result now you have to convince the wife to be, that she wants a kitcar so you can have a his and hers.

its like minded peers

Steve, I am working in Basingstoke on that day I'll try to sneak off if its not to far from the office. Regards Mark

Steve, That looks like a good solution, how do you intend to keep it in place? Please post some pictures when finished. Regards Mark

Hi Martin, I have fitted these couldn't make my mind up silver or black, paranoid that I'm going to sctratch them. From wheel based alloys came with rubber, wheel nuts, locking wheel nut set for about £420, besides the kit the largest spend for the build so far. Mark

Decision made I ordered the 7 set chrome bezels, white dials with red pointers today. Went for the electronic speedo after hearing the potential issues with cable routing. Should be here in 2 weeks.

Congratulations and well done. All the best.

very harsh and dry

This site is really a build manual and it brings like minded people together, with a proper and decent manual there might not be so many members. Also one of the best parts of kit cars is the different shapes, colours, mods, bodges, brackets, tweaks, different parts that do the job etc. they are all different, follow a biuld manual and the majority will look like a production car.

Sorry to hear your news. I always update my CV annually - you never know, printed on high quality off-white paper to stand out in the crowd. I have been involve in a lot of recruiting in the past 4-5 years and the most common format I see and the layout for mine is. 1. Name (larger font than the rest of the document. 2. Address 3. Contact details (tel home, mobile and email) 4. Profile - 1/4 page - Its all about you, character, skills, experience and knowledge. 5. Education and training - list in date order (can be differcult to support without certificates) don't worry how small the course was it demonstrates the ability to learn and apply yourself. 6. Employment history - In your case one company write in short concise paragraphs for each role you have been employed stating the year you started each role. Use statements like promoted, developed into, exceeded target/objectives, achievements etc. Basically sell yourself, you are better then the next candidate. 7. Interest and hobbies - Explain that you have a life and commitments outside of work, it tells the interviwer that you are not lazing and enjoy occupying your time (not a couch potato). 8. Additional information - i.e. Married with 2 kids, driving license category, foster carer etc Make sure you support the information in the CV, and don't laugh practice interviews with family (the inlaws are great for this(devils advocate)) I still attend 2-3 interviews a year to find out if I am employable and to gain experience. Then you will be able to answer any questions about your CV also remember the interviewers names, if yourespond to a question knowing thier name i.e 'yes Simon' it works a treat. Hope this helps Regards Mark

Thank you, guessing the cable route will be cheaper then electronic sensor.

Congratulations and well done a great acheivement.

Steve, Thank you

Hi, Going to fit ETB (7 set)gauges to Zero with a type 9 gearbox can anybody reccommend speedo cable manufacturer and provide details on ends/length/routing please? Need cable to complete disc test. Thank you in advance. Regards Mark

Best build part has to be electrics - really enjoy solving problems (using old sierra loom). Best tool rivnut - amazing gadget wish i had these in the forces. Worst build - lack of money and time (Wife/family/work). Worst tool - my vice rubish, rubish and for good measure rubish.

Steve, Did you take any paperwork on your visit to show the car i.e. V5 build photo's etc. Regards Mark

Sounds great and not too expensive if you consider the cost of windscreen kit and safety.

Welcome to the mad house you will get plenty of support an this site from a good bunch of like minded owners/builders. Always offering to share knowledge and experience. All the best Mark
