At this rate you'll have yours on t' road before me. Nice.
Beware of the Goldfish in the tulip mines. The ONLY defence against them is smoking peanut butter sandwiches.

Still lots to do and the lack of somewhere to do it is not good at the moment
but hoping thats sorted by the end of the month and we can crack on with it.
One issue to be solved is the front caliper mouting brackets but im chasing up about those today

haven't mounted the arches yet but thought i'd see if they fit over the 10J wheels and 285/30 18 fitted to roll it around on, they fit
perfect!!!!!
not bad for standard arches

Right update time lol.
Engine and box back in exhaust problem sorted (1 of them was shorter than the other!!!!!)
Some of the interior pannels done and fuel tank well under way.
Diff now put together and propshaft has arrived from the usa.
Now the problems;
Diff seamed to have too much backlash.
Turns out that i was wrong and its within tollerance i dont mind being wrong maybe im just used to a better fit.
Propshaft is a perfect length shame it was made with the wrong end flange for the diff (diff has a 4.25" bolt circle and i think the flange
measured 3.5" got on to the guy in the usa funny he is called Mark and pointed this out to him and he confessed his mistake and the right
flange is in the post god knows if ill get it on time for the wekend fo fingers crossed.
Thats about it for now i think lol

looks like i may have found a workshop of a sort, well at least a place i can work on car and leave it up on trestles, its the size of a double garage
and will be usable for about 2 months, so will have to hit into it for the 2 months and get it at least drivable.

That'll be because he hasn't had it running lately. Nice to hear it's still work in progress.
