Our next job is to complete the installation of the engine and to test run it to ensure its ok.



The ignition system will have to be built . This is spencers job as he knows someone at nasa who is gonna help him. Its a megajoltlite system and needs a trigger wheel fitted to the crankshaft which i did before fitting the engine into the bay.









We hope to do this soon but need the rest of the fuel system in place and also the alternator needs to be bought.

Once this is running ok we can move onto the next stage in the build.











'' Just when you think its going well is when it all goes wrong'' said Spencer to me today when we heard the news about another car company going into admin. This is very sad but sometimes can't be helped.
Well at lease we don't have that to worry about as all is well at Baxter automobile and design.
So onto the build and Spencer is working on some new designs for the extra strengthening we are adding to the chassis to increase over all strength.




As you can see from the pics i'm using the welder to fix a few bits of metal to other bits of metal!!
Its a great tool, but one i'm not very good with so i think i'll let spencer do the rest.

Well you know how thing are when you are on holiday..... You don't want to come home!!!!
So Spencer and myself decided to stay on for a few extra weeks.
But now we are back and are straight back into the build of our new car.
