*** Little Update *** Well as we still don't have a completion date on the house a bit more progress has been made on the buggy Again i need to say a big thankyou to Paul from my work as he has been awesome and has continued working away like a machine and is down in the workshop every lunch time to work on the buggy. He has almost finished off adding the foam to the ply templates and i now only have to make a few more parts and its on to the long job of filling, sanding, filling, sanding etc........ This won't be the final shape but is just the template, after i have fibreglassed the

my bad.............sorted.

Looks great dude, i did the exact same thing to mine a few months back........... Saw another mariner one today as well Few of them about now. What you got planned next dude?? Jason

Yes want to change my plate but have so much else to buy that im not in a rush. Gotta love the Mariner blue, makes a change from all the green, red and silver ones i always see ;) Keep up the good work dude

Thanks Dude! Always nice to have comments like this. House was the right thing to do, still trying to sort the completion date but its getting there. Once i have the house sorted and done i can get back on the buggy, although it won't be for a long time yet. Jason

Looking good dude! ;) Mine has a UK plate panel and want to convert it back to a Jap spec version. Seeing more and more of these about now in Mariner Blue Jason

Just checked back on this. Bummer to see your selling up but best to get out of renting Steve, its just money down the pan each month. We are in the process of buying a house and although im going to be broke for years to come now and no money to spend on the Demon its the right thing to do Jason

What did you do in the end dude? As im just about to do the same

On it..................

I voted to remove it, but then i can't really talk. I have no Air con in mine but then i have no doors, windscreen, roof, so no real need for the air con Jason

Thanks Guys Im well happy with the work If you want more news Sparky i will need parts Like a ECU Loom Connector maybe???

Well, its been a while, who am i kidding its been flippin AGES!!!!!!! *** Update *** Well as most of you know the work on this has been VERY slow. What with breaking the lexus (STILL) keeping the mazda running and clean, house hunting, work, etc i just haven't had the time to do anything on this. A guy from work recently got back from a week off where him and a mate just drived and camped across Europe and after seeing the pictures im dying to do something similar! I mentioned that i would love to do something similar in the buggy and he thought that sounded Amazing. I said that the mrs wo

PM on its way dude!!!!! ;)

Sounds epic Sparkdog! ;) Know what you mean about bits keep going wrong all the time! Everytime i go to do something on the buggy something gets in my way ;) Jason ;)

Yay more progress!!!!!! ;) Know what you mean about the tyres, the lexus was like that and the insides where destroyed. Thats also one of the first things that will need sorting on the buggy as the camber on the rear is CRAZY!!!!! Keep up the good work sparkdog, can't wait to see this thing for real! Any luck with that connector? Sorry to keep bugging, Jason

I currently have £54.25 sat in ebay so i think i might buy a few more parts and that will give me some stuff to get on with for a bit. Now what parts to buy???? start coolant lines? sort handbrake? battery cover/footrest? Although i do have a few parts i can currently work on.......... mounting the front arch's speedo wiring sorting/cleaning up wiring on engine further welding number plate brackets/etc hmmmmmmmmmmmm..................

Thanks Guys, yes Sarah is pretty Awesome, wouldn't be with her if she wasn't Will find out about the house tomorrow and then we will know where we stand! If we don't get this one we will be back to saving more money as there isn't much else out there at the moment. I think they will say yes but can't be certain Busy times ahead, but before the house sale goes through i might be able to get a few more updates done on the buggy Jason

Yeah, bout time we got our own place! needs to be done, big commitment i know but we have been together for nearly 8 years now so about time i guess Will hopefully be about a bit more now, if i get time Its all about that first drive dude, smile on your face must have been huge. When weather is nice you need to get up those black mountain roads and enjoy even more!!!!!

I missed UKSC too, and you of course you ol man whore!!!! LOL I could tell ya all about it mate but its probably easier for you to just read the 'project deathwish' thread latest post and that will explain all. Saves spamming up this thread. Will be a HUGE help if you still have that ecu connection block Really glad this is back on the road, been a long time coming this. That first drive must have been something else!!!!! Im dying to get a first drive of mine, especially as i have never owned a FAST car

Been a while since i checked up on this, well i say a while, its been flippin AGES!!!!!!!! Anyway, the work thats gone into this is epic, flippin love this car Sparkdog! I bet your flippin lovin it, been a long time coming! Just on a side note, you didn't happen to keep that connection block i needed from the old burnt out loom did ya??? Jason

Im still about lurking in the shadows guys Just not posted since february Time has just flown past the last few months, would love to say i have secretly finished the buggy off but that is far from the truth!!!!! Work has stopped on this for the time being, just don't have any time at the moment and thats only going to get worse. Me and the misses have been saving for a house for the last few years and a few weeks back we put in a offer on a little bungalow and will find out next week if we have it or not. Im pretty confident we will get it and finally have a house of our own. Now the bung

Think the Garage Vary front lip will look awesome on yours! looks great on mine!

Yes of course mate ;) Hopefully weather improves so i can get the roof down!

Think its just me and Dan at the moment??? He's only going as im taking him for a spin in the Mex ;)

Very easy to find! Coming from Bournemouth direction, go to junction 2 on M27 and take first left, go to next roundabout and take first left again, pub is on right, you really can't miss it. Its sign posted as well ;)
