Default Progress pictures from builders.

To all those currently building a 5EXI. Post some pictures and some progress.

Would love to see how you are all getting on.

Some specs you aiming for as well would be great.

All mine are on my website, there are 1000's of pictures so I wont post them

http://www.stsa.co.uk/gallery/5EXi/BuildPhotos/

I grouped all my images together, in "tasks" so the buildup of each component can be seen in one page.

Also my build diary text
http://www.stsa.co.uk/content/projectEXi/diary/
Everytime I have done something I have written down, problems, solutions and milestones

No sure if you have the Marlin build CD but I have shown on this post the Fickle finger of fate akc the hand of Mark and the role cage and window screen positioning if it helps.

You my notice to the left (towards the rear of the car) of the bar the removal of the bracket that is/was welded on to the top rail. I found after a lot of head scratching that I needed to remove this bracket as well to make it all fit better.

I have also shown a picture of the rear mounting and the spacer I fitted.
