It's a lovely car Max, I'd buy it if I didn't already own one.

Out of interest,
Where's the battery gone? Trunk?
What's the metal canister sticking up (with hoses) where the master cylinder used to be?

To Stingray, the battery is still under the bonnet, towards the nearside rear. The metal canister you refer to, I believe was advised to be to do with the air conditioning.

Fascinating car IMO. Should make someone a great purchase. It's surprising there aren't more similar conversions in UK with parts sourced from "down under".

Amongst other things I was interested to see it's a manual. To my mind autos would be easier to convert because there's no clutch pedal and I think the driver's side of C5 cockpit was wider than the passenger side, even though the torque tube is central.
