Some further pics of the seam welds on the front struts and along the front fenders.

Finally my new tires have arrived!

I decided to go with what all the Time Attack cars run in Japan - Advan AO48's. Sized at 225x35x18 and 285x30x18. I'll have to ideally get some 265's for the front, but the 225s were a bargin.

Now that the tilter has arrived work underneath the car can commence.
The welds from the seams cause the underseal to melt so rather than remove it all and have the car rust in a few years (thats what I get for living in the UK)... I decided to have it all resealed.

With the engine now out the front struts can be seam welded. The engine can also have a polish up too!
