After visiting John's shop and seeing a pretty cool little set of tools, I had to make some for myself! These are really slick for holding stuff to weld. I'm probably going to make a long one as well. I've already used them a couple times!

I also placed some wheels on the car to sort fitment of the wings, and because it looks cool! I also had the radiator in the nose, which is tight vertically. I'm working on this issue currently - I also want to have room for a small intercooler somewhere. I've decided to sell the supercharger and go the turbo route.

I also bought some headlights from SVC. They have a great price on these! They are the caterham 5 3/4" headlights, which I spent more on after seeing the way they look on John's car. Here's a link to them if anyone else needs 5 3/4" nice lights:

I'm going to go grab some rivnuts and dzus plates today to try to get the body and radiator mount tabs sorted. That, and the headlight mounts, will let me finish weld and finally paint the chassis.
