Missing Pictures on Pilgrim's website

[baja_yu]

Hi all.

While looking at Pilgrims website (I have decided to build their Sumo) I notice that there are absolutely no pictures of any part or kit. I want to make a car which has a real nice stylish enterior with leather and wood etc. And as I plan to buy all parts from them (except engine and transmission) I dont know what I will get.
Does anyone (who built a Sumo) have pictures of the kit and/or parts they bought from them so I can see what they look like?

And one more, do the floor matts come already cut out (so they just need fitting and gluing down) or do I get an ammount of material and I have to cut it out myself?

This info may be in the manual, but I dont yet have one, I am in the process of ordering but it is taking a lot of time as my only payment option is bank transfer.

Thanks,
Baja

Tony Breski's build diary has loads pictures, you can find it at

My own site is at http://www.sumobuild.co.uk where I've got a few pictures of the chassis and start kit (as that's all I've got at the moment!).

I believe the carpets supplied by Pilgrim are all the right shape and size and the edges bound so all you need to do is stick them to the floorpan.

If I were you I would order the "A car is born" video or DVD from Pilgrim (or direct from http://www.homeandleisure.co.uk if you can) That shows the kit in all its glory as it is built.

Good luck!

PS - You could also ask Pilgrim to post you a brochure and parts catalogue with the build manual, they have a fair few pictures as well.

I can second Paul's advice re. A car is born. Very informative - although somewhat lacking in the electrical dept - no info on fitting the wiring loom.

Hi,

thanks to both of you for the info. I will check out the links you sent. Regarding the video, I have order all 9 DVDs of "... is born" and "... is reborn" series. I am hoping they will arrive next week
