After working out what is required for the steering adapter i decide to start work on the rear wheel arches to fix the uneven gaps.

Picture of the near side rear arch before i started to cut and shut.

Cut around the arch then used a wood spacer between the Tyre and the cut edge to get an even curve.

Gap glassed up with four layers of fiber glass and roughly filled in for now, the leading edge will have to be blended in as its too low at the minute, i intentional left it longer than required until the body was refitted to the chassis to be able to see where it should blend in.

Both side have been done so its down to smoothing off with filler. This is probably the last job where i had to be able to remove the body so hopefully very soon the body will be bonded to the sub frame.

Looking at ways to mount the fuse board under the passenger dash board area but still be able to gain access for future maintenance. I am thinking along the lines of hinging the unit but will have to see what room i have to play with.

Well that's it for now see you all soon.
