Nice progress, keep up the good work! I'm looking forward to seeing the end result and the driving videos. Seems to be a very well thought out and documented build. Thanks for sharing!

I very nearly bought one of these with an F20C, had the gauge cluster etc. Please make sure you upgrade the brakes! It retained the non-assisted brakes - first brake on the test drive was a clencher for sure
