Great work nice subtle mods will be nice when done. Can I ask will you be fitting a strut brace across the rear top shocker mounts or have you already re enforced that area to save you punching through or deforming the rear tubs now you have ditched the leaf springs for Coil overs? |

Love what you've done, I'm just about to RHD my two door, what did you find the best way to get the pedal box mounts in the right place

This is my RHD mk2. If your upper bulkhead is the same as mine, the dimple for the the standard pedal box is on both sides. Drill that out so you can then mark the other mounting holes  |

Beautiful car,
I loved my 1600E but, being honest, I'd love to do similar to your amazing work on a 2 door Mk1 Cortina,
Bookmarked and looking forward to seeing future updates,
Nigel
