The Lotus 77 'replica' is finished - The body was made for and used in the 2013 film 'Rush' My task was to take the body and build it onto an adapted single seater chassis - This was never meant as a nut and bolt replica but as a fun track car with an interesting movie connection.

Repairing (very!) Worn series one Land Rover cam followers. The worn face is TIG welded with a special filler rod to give near identical HRC to the factory finish. They are then ground and polished to shape using a special holder on the lathe with a rotary grinder mounted on the tool post. The finishing step is to fit new bushes and ream to size - as good as new!

Fabricating a 4-2-1 exhaust system for the Yamaha engined Lotus 77 'replica'. Pipe lengths are based on a factory Yamaha manifold and are all within 15mm of being equal - closer tolerance than factory. #customexhaust #exhaustfabrication #racecarfabrication #singleseater #bmclassicvehicles #historicracing #lotus77 #fabrication
