More details from the mods that took place last week.<br><br>Greg decided to install a second oil cooler in line with the stock one. He placed it front mounted of the water cooler. This is to allow engine oil to cool easily during hard driving and especially considering the hot summer we have in Greece.<br><br>2nd Oil cooler installed connected in line with stock one<br>Image<br><br>You can see the 2nd Oil cooler in front of the water cooler, I marked the area with red dots!<br>Image<br>

Costas,<br><br>     Thanks for the info!  Nice to know that they can fit the reverse light on there- though I am sure a way could be found to jury rig it together if that was something they did not offer.<br><br>     All I know is, I don't need to give the 5-0 another reason to pull me over!  ::)<br><br>     I will look forward to hearing what they say about prices and if they will make more.  Thank you very much for checking in on this!

The blue Elan is mine, you could have told me earlier that you was having a back panel made up Costas could have saved me a lot of work  ;)<br><br>Chris

Chris, did you really make it by yourself? I am amazed and really you earned my full admiration! I found out the easy way (watching) that it takes a LOT OF WORK and patience to do such a panel. Great Job! <br><br>I had no idea you were doing this also....  :-[<br><br>We could both earn time and money if we knew that both of us were building the same thing...<br><br>Costas

Unfortunatelly I arrived very late in the afternoon at DSP and it was allready dark outside so I had to take some shots with my camera indoors using flash which is not a good combo for an all-black Sh4rk.<br><br>Anyways, here they are:<br><br>Did you ever had 4 technicians working in your trunk?  8)<br>Image<br><br>Rear view<br>Image<br><br>Quarter view<br>Image<br><br>Zoom in corner edge<br>Image
