Fuel Additve Bottle Holder

Have made up a bottle holder for the fuel additive the car uses.
This hopefully will stop the bottle from rolling around in the boot and leaking all over the place.
Made out of an old dizzy cover and a bit of carpet and bolted to the boot infill panel.

Headlamp Covers

I have spent most of this year (since the Stoneleigh kit car show) looking for a pair of covers to protect my carbon fiber effect headlamp shells which cost me an arm & leg. Looking around at the shows and various websites I have not found any that cut the mustard, till last Wednesday night
when a came across a website call Lesley Storr Design.
I contacted Lesley via the website and within minutes I got a reply detailing the price and all in info for placing an order, now that's what I call service.

So I put in an order for a pair of 7 inch carbon Fiber Effect covers to match the lamp shells with a red 7 embroidered on to them. Lesley quickly mail me back to say they would be made up for me on the Thursday and posted out the same day, wow
Well they came in the post today (Friday), what a turn round from order to being on the car in three days.


These covers are top quality items and are very well made, believe me I have looked at a few.
They fit perfectly and look the business. I'm well pleased.


Its not just headlamp covers that Lesley manufactures, also available are hood bags, tonneau covers, boot covers and half doors and much more.

So if you own a 7 type car and you are in need of exterior trim contact Lesley via the website

Rain & Wind breaker, draught reducer

I have made up a rain/wind break draught reducer that fits in to the roll bar out of clear PVC sheet. This may just be a prototype for now but will see how it goes for now.



The sheet cut to size and a rubber edge put on


The reducer in place with the Surrey hood up. Hopefully this will stop some if not all the rain water from coming into the cockpit when the car is moving as it runs off the back of the surrey.




In place with the surrey hood rolled up on to the roll bar.
