Close up....
Will touch up the paint later, as I still have to put exhaust paste in and get a few more clamps later.
Pretty proud tho as all home made!!! :)

To make the "joining sleeves", I had to cut the pipe lengthwise on one side with a grinder, open it up to fit the original into, then spot weld the gap, followed by seam welding it, and then using the Dremel with a grinding disk on the inside to remove the weld "blobs", until smooth bore again.
A lot of work really, but now done ;)

Cheers

Cut out the rear wheel arch today and temporary mounted the engine cover with the volvo hinges (thanks JD), and fitted the boot catch.
