Dash in, Glass in doors on, wings on.
todays been a breathe of air with seeing a good visual update and to actually have some of the interior back in.
Still got plenty to do, paint front and rear bumper, paint bonnet, rear tailgate and spoiler.
I’m hoping the engine will be put back in the bay next week providing no hick ups.

The soarer is still making progress I have just been super slack in updating this build thread so sorry guys.
So carrying on from my last post I got the car back home and been making good progress in getting the engine wired back up and plumbed in. Its now at a point where I need to fit a expansion tank and basically fill it full of fluids and try to fire this thing up. The air set up I have been tidying but still need to fit the 4 corner level sensors and I end up having to trim my front arches on the wings to which I cocked one up so brought another wing which I'm still yet to paint and fit as well as paint my bonnet and fit
lots of other bits has gone on around getting the engine back together like fitting up the rear hand brake shoes / removing and heat coating the exhaust heat shields under the car / fitting the rear callipers / disks and bleeding the brakes up.
Il photo dump a few pics here and promise to keep on top of this thread from now on as il be attempting to fire this up for the first time in almost 16 years which I think is gunna be a massive leap in. this build. I absolutely can't wait to drive this and use it next year and attend a few shows.

So that's where my differential gone. Interestingly, when I figured out it's missing from the car you sold me, you said you had no idea.
Cool build, but monkey business!

Stop commenting on all my stuff because you brought an engine from me I clearly state in my add the car is stripped. YOU PURCHASED AN ENGINE. I was kind enough to send you the shell of the car because I couldn’t be bothered to remove the engine from it and you seem to think you’re entitled to a diff.

Well, should I attach all our communication with your statements and promises? And then I figured out what really happened and all your lies.
Shame on you!

Do what you want buddy. You brought an engine with a stripped shell. You left me bad reviews on my business page which was nothing to do with this transaction over you never getting a diff on the car which was never stated in the for sale ad in the first place. I’m not going to send you anything for free I haven’t advertised. Shame on you pal

Nice to keep chat history, right? And blame me on cheating ... when in this thread right here you even explained about that differential (Torsen unit, btw).
Nice UK "businessman".
Weird one guys.
Looks like an engine was all that was advertised, no mention of any other parts as far as i can see from the limited information provided.
Keep it civil or ill start cleaning the thread up.
Cheers
