There has been no more done I'm afraid. Due to a fraudelent mechanic, me destroying an engine on the Nurburgring, marriage falling apart and financial issues it's currently sat on axel stands in my garage with a dust sheet over it while I try to earn enough money to move it on and get an engine into it!
