2..Starting the build

Three months after ordering the kit the day arrived to take delivery,by this time we had all the jaguar components reconditioned and painted ready for assembly,and the day found us setting up axle stands to rest the body/chassis on outside of my home.When the loader arrived a few friends and i lifted the body/chassis as one piece onto the stands so that construction could begin.The first components that we decided to assemble were the rear differential and rear suspension including half shafts,this we did because it would be necessary to roll the car around the side of my house into my garage.

The second item was the steering rack and complete front suspension,in this way we were able to fit the wheels and drop the car onto the ground for the first time.All of these steps only took an afternoon and there were no problems worth mentioning,which is completely due to the quality of the kit and accuracy of the mounting points.

Over the next few weeks we continued to build the car using the following order:

Compete braking system (because it is easier to fit pipes at this stage)
Lights and electrical systems using Dax supplied wiring loom
Radiator and oil cooler
Fuel tank and fuel pipes(leaving the pipes long just in case)
