Feature: Shane Murray's winter Rebuild
After a highly successful 2009 season for Randalstown's Shane Murray, in which he claimed the Irish Points championship, Irish Championship, and was third place in the world final, not to mention clinching the Irish Points and Irish title in the Stock Rods, Shane is going to rebuild the car ahead of the 2010 season.

Shane has kindly offered to supply photos and snippets of information throughout the process, to help give fans a better insight into the behind the scenes end of it all. It is really not very often that you get the opportunity to see pictures likes this. Everyone likes a bit of excitement like these races or playing online casino (http://www.casino.com/) but it can be easy to forget how they come about. It's great that when you see any amazing race you can see a little bit of what goes into the preparation before hand. We hope you enjoy them!

Update 5 - Added 6/4/10 This is the car finished, sign written and ready for the new season. Photos taken 1/4/2010
Update 4 - Added 10/3/10 Car finished and ready for painting
Update 3 - Added 10/3/10 Wheel areches were cut away, then a 5mm return put on the panel to clamp and weld the new wheel arch to. The wheel arch was welded on in small areas at a time being careful not to overheat the panel.
Update 2 - Added 10/2/10 A few weeks further on, and the 70 car is now starting to take shape again. The wings, bonnet, doors and quarter panels have all been lined up, wings bolted in place quarter panels welded up, front and rear bumpers mounted on. The next step will be to measure up the widths to put the arches on then weld arches and skirts on, this will be a longer spell in the rebuilt, but updates will follow
Update 1 - Added 31/1/10 After 3 or 4 nights work, the car has now been stripped back to the spaceframe, leaving just the roof panel on the car.
