So the weekend before FCS I had lots of things to do. Sam came over and we got the car up and started stripping out all the air con!

All for the bin!

so much more room for activities!

and the slimline fan went on! Not wired in... but at least itll work if it is wired!

And then I drilled a hole in the bodies in order to get a brake vacuum. I now have working brakes! Although they are a bit spongey they are a million times better than no assistance!

So now for the first time since fitting the bodies i have both working power steering and brakes and can start enjoying the car again. I also wired up the speedo so I can see how it pulls now and the answer is surprisingly well! 2 hours on track at FCS should be interesting!
