Here are some pictures. They are not all in the correct order.






































Just how to see the new front. It fitted perfect





Time to fit a new (used) roof.




















Ohhh fuck!!! What too do..


No problem, I just had to press it the right way



And the door still fit under the roof

Tja, det gřr jeg pĺ en mĺde. Den stĺr under en pressening. Men det er ikke optimalt. Bilen kommer ind i vćrkstedet i nćste weekend.
Bilen skal sandblćses nĺr den er klar til det..


Thanks, it going to be a special car

nice project!
why You using type9 gearbox? do You think it will hold almost 300Nm torque?
pro's do not prefer, they say t9 is weak.
MT75 works perfectly and have VSS for ECU.
Or use old essex Type5 unless it has only 4 gears, but heavy duty as well as its needed.

we are using both of them, in drift sierras.
didn't try the t9 yet, we still have fear about the weakness.

I have also heard that they are not as strong, but it must keep as long as it can.


And then I have an update. I've made mountings for the engine and rebuilt tha crossmember.
