        It's all cleared out now. All that stuff is what was taken off the car.

          No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them.

                  Any progress? This is such a bad ass project.

                    Not yet. Will probably be a week or two before I have any progress to show. Finishing up some things in the garage before I start in on her. My time is limited due to work and school.

                      Every time I look in my shed and see my Triumph GT6 and my two spare M42s, I think of this thread :)

                        OH snap, progress!

                        Worked on plating what was done up in cardboard the last time I worked on the car. This took quite some time as there was a lot of fitting needed and it is kind of an awkward place to reach.




                        Still needs a little bit of hammer work once I start welding it in solid, but all in all the fit is great.

                        Here is what it looks like with the intake in place. Just cardboard at the moment.


                        Plenty of room for the steering u-joint.


                        Next step is to pull the motor and get it all welded in.

                            Saw this car today and thought of your build!


                            Keep up the good work! Love seeing the m42 being used in other platforms!
