Yes mate, down the line. Don't like the full external ones so I will likely have the external front screen bar and then a custom GT style to protect the second row. The third row seats will be going I reckon. Andy

Good call, I've looked at different options as in the back of my mind it does nag that these cars are not very strong.

Is Wildcat addressing the A/C system as well? My understanding is that all the Puma stuff have to come out. What system do you guys use over there?

PD: I have read both of your build-ups multiple times and just registered to thank you for the good read. An inspiration for many all over the world. Cheers!

Cheers buddy Thumbs Up

Standard AC all remains, some adjustments are made. Speaking to Wildcat today and it's full steam ahead on Monday, all my bits are now in stock or fabricated and they plan to have the engine and box in by next Friday. Andy
