How did you hide the electrical wiring harness? Also is the battery in the back bin? And how much were you able to sell it for?

seriously, how much was invested? That is truly stunning, and really, how did you hide all the elec. There is no way that i could sell that car, that would be an heirloom.

hey guys,
right the wiring which was a real mission along with the brake lines which are also hidden.
The wiring runs through the inner guards (using the channels that are already there) there is a lot that can be removed from the loom and the rest that is needed was put under the kick plate on the passengers foot well. The battery was moved to the boot. The only wiring that you really need to see comes down from the altenator runs down the side of the motor
All the lines were the proper stainless braided (a nightmare to work with) using cover clapms. Those cover kits that just cover the original are rubbish. The brake lines were all custom braided and ran through the inside of the car with the proportioning valve mounted inside the car around the kick plate.
I also did underneath as well and perhaps my favourite part was the custom stainlees drop tank my friend made
The radiator is a factory item just 4core and i painted it and mounted an electric fan on the front never had heating problems
The wheels were 17x7 they are Fondmetal Tech 9A had 215/40/17's
Yeah it was hard to sell but i have another project so get to do it all again. My Dad and i did the work ourselves aside paint and a couple of things but it was more building the car that is the fun part so onto the next one, still rotor, still old but with 4 doors this time
hahaha Directfreak yeah got a couple of other pics like that ill try and track down..
