The Super Hok.... final stages....

Spent some time on this car again.... Its been running for awhile now but had some power steering issues which have now been sorted.... Looks like no more leaks either..... today i just went through wheel studs and brakes.... cleaned the outside as the dust layer was getting a bit much.....





I pulled it back inside and finally sorted out the boot latches.... Had these in a packet for two years already... finally fitted though and i think perfect and in keeping to rest of the concept....


Petrol Recess i think looks good and should work like a charm, no having to open the boot.. I also placed a sponge strip under the boot to stop any vibrations on the body.....



Windows... finally pulled the plastic off.... left this late as i dont like the scratches the poly carb gets quickly... took all the bolts and so on off, cleaned and put back.... neat and clean now...


grommets should also work quite well.....


checked all the brakes and so on... bolted everything up again...


thats it.... will work on it this week again... needs fenders and a few other things.... but its driving.. need to run it in....



oh i also took it in and had it weighed a few weeks back... ... 1020kg....

ford focus

to not be sure is something im sure of.... in general the theme, not specific....
sorry to say the least with the least normally said - all confused... say the feelings, try...
sad again, self blamed, but not self taught... the pattern continues - unnecessary

i hate this part.......

time to write nothing.....

writing nothing in hope of having said enough.... confused at the present - past, post being the objective.... mistakes pre, and current not prevented but the objective for future still fixed?
We hope and hold our hearts to the "funny feelings", some looking and finding calm in family, but where others have lost find no one there... Alone together still, i believe.... emotional....
obvious love no mad woman could decide, but yet the world is mad so we look to the future......now, but later on... sad always, but in hope of movie scenes and the love that goes with it.... Not wanting to be this, not having to be another - waiting, searching, growing, ...becoming.......

thank you....

satisfied time relative



the simple theory of ones normality, giving off a natural or unsuppressed feeling of emotion allowing a heirarchy of some sort in any situation relative to interaction among/amongst....

naturally opposite, vague and unsure create for disputes - real time decisions unfortunately the scenario of "whats inside"....

troubled history, post relative not pre - concerning to say the least - the least normally said......

some stuff on the SUPER HOK.....

So at some point i actually finished the stuff i needed to on the front end, well enough to get the wiring sorted out at least... Fuel rail at the moment is on and all lines attached... The picture below is still in the stages of mocking up the fuel rail and so on, but i thought it to be a cool enough picture to post up.... Love the brake ducting and so on.. i forget all the little things which have happened...
This month marks 2 years of  building on this car, and also the last time i drove and raced it... A simple radiator cap created this scenario but then again i enjoy the creative side of building as much as i do driving... I think if anything i have given into the fact that i dont ever really get to race, regardless of how many cars i may have...  I guess its also a time away from my thoughts which is probably a good thing for me most times.....


So wiring... here is the start of it.... Pre wiring if you want to call it that... Asked some friends of mine to help out as i hadnt a clue... The concept was pretty much the same as the rest, simple, light and out the way... "must look like it doesnt run", were the words i actually used....
Here is the before picture....


some mocking up again and again to try find the right routing and so on.. The original loom was ridiculous and heavy, running carbs ment no need for all the additional crap that goes with fuel injection... Simple.... apparently....



Inside... nothing major, just the basics, something goes wrong, easy access... If there are any issues at some point, and there always are, im hoping that having everything in the right place makes the process that less of an issue... Aesthetics not to bad either, might change some items later, but lets get it running already... dont feel like another 2 years worth... We only get so much time to build so many cars in our lives.. need to finish the other projects which have started already....



The last picture....
This is wiring complete... Simple enough i think.... I have some more cosmetic things to sort out like the tappet cover and oil breather, but thats easy enough... Final stages in real time...
Next up on the build is completing the exhaust and then its time to drive it.... Lots of little things as always but the plan is to still do an event this year... Would be great if it happens....
