I had to cut my bolts to fit don't make the same mistake as me wrecking the nyloc (too much heat and technically should only be used once)use a dummy nut first to protect the nyloc and clean the thread when cutting.

Dave,

Welcome I am building a yellow zero at present although work has been extremely busy and its been a while since I ventured into the garage.

If you join you can access the map to see members in your area tea and biscuits is normally enough to bribe/get help with any problems.

Or all questions answered here.Best of luck.

Regards

Mark

I would like to see one in the flesh.

Well John and Nick,

You motivated me to get back into the garage and attempt the back panel unfortunately only had time to mark, drill and file edges on top strip before she who must be obeyed wanted a stay gate fitted, then dinner. Well it will have to wait until next weekend.

Regards

Mark

You make it look so easy I am dredding this job wished I selected ali instead of stainless.

Looks really good.

Regards

Mark

I agree with Daz sounds like charging not sure how the jenvey and emerald is set up but on a normal engine set up I would consider disconnecting the alternator electrics and see if it still happens.

Regards

Mark

Ian,

Looks good can't wait until a show to see it close up. Are you tempted to fit a twin on the other side?

Regards

Mark

Jess,

Remember it could always be worst the misses toes, next doors cat or the car across the road.......

Hope it gets better soon.

Mark

Hi Ricky,

This is a great forum with plenty of advice. You have a good show in Detling next year year come along and meet some members. It is all worth it the pain, the tears, the cost and the wife nagging.

Best of luck

Mark

John,

Making more progress than me right now. I will get some picture uploaded one of these days, maybe when its to cold to go into the garage.

ALso where did you get the new brake master cylinder and reservior from please?

Regards

Mark

Looks good grey matter now thinking what if I used the same colour as the seats with yellow piping or can you get a stainless coloured trim to match panels. Another thing to add to the 'things to do list'.

Regards

Mark

Managed to get a AA hardback atlas with local information and pictures the from the area retail price £30.

Bigger the better more money for the charity

Matt moo - I used the chat room yesterday first time I have visited and actually used it to talk to someone. Normally I all alone sniff, sniff however it was good but I had a constant clicking sound is this normal (similar to the noise when you click a mouse button)?

What about a web cam feature then we can se each other and show our cars if we had a problem/fault etc.

Regards

Mark

PS. not that I get much time to get on the PC.

Marty,

Looks good so far we are almost at the same stage of the build. Unfortunately with work commitments I have not ben in the garage for 2 weeks.

Keep te picture coming.

Regards

Mark

Keep as is.

I originally wanted a 2b but due to work, family and cash flow it was not really possible. When that all settled down I reviewed my options and stuck with RH and selected the Zero for no other reason than it was the latest model. I still review all topics new and old as previously stated most of the car is the same. Also there is a lot of experience on this forum with valuable information.

Pat on the back to all you make this a great forum not only the car........

Mark

James,

Good looking car hopefully see it in the flesh during one of the shows, another inspiration to get a move on with my build.

Enjoy it!

Mark

Another get together I will be missing stuck in Basingstoke working.

One of these days......

Regards

Mark

Good idea.

We have already selected our business charities for this year but I'll appraoch my work and see what I can blag, borrow or steal.

Regards

Mark

Russel,

You will not regret your decision, theres plenty of help on the forum when needed.

When is the collection date? Measure twice!

Regards

Mark

Hi,

I agree with Spencer totally. The rear bushes went well but the front had to use extra washers because the bush and tube was too short and I didn't like the thought of the front suspension arms sliding front to rear.

Regards

Mark

Nick,

Smart interior the piping looks good can't wait for the final version with gaiters finished.

Regards

Mark

Matt,

My opinion - the Zero is great, yes there are a few teething/annoying problems however ask a question on this site and someone will answer your question. Trust me we have all asked something we have thought is daft. Any difficult issues offer tea and biscuits and someone will even visit your garage to help.

Great forum support and GBS are always helpful. Try to visit the Stafford kitcar show in September.

Best of luck.

Regards

Mark

Spencer,

Looks good so far, are my eyes deceiving or have you painted the engine bay blue?

You are a little ahead of me keep it up.

Regards

Mark

I am using normal carbs and I was going to fit a air vent/scoop is there any IVA requirements besides blunted edges?

Also how do you paint ABS plastic yellow to match GRP?

Can't wait to see the finished scoop.

Regards

Mark
