Default Jim this is your fault and you know it lol (Cossie 24v P100)

Ok so i finished wiring Jim's car yesterday and look what i had to do today!!!!!!!

Ok so it's a shed on wheels but with a Explorer LSD on the back end and the T5 gearbox it should go well

Oh and if any one wants a T5 bellhousing watch this space as it will be coming out to be copyed at some point depending on interest level's will depend on how long it stays in the P100

Lets be honest it really needs a gallon of petrol and a match lol but it should be fun gonna change the front struts to granada cossie and the axle has the same stud pattern as that so it will run the granada wheels which we have a few of

Will be running all be it with little or no exhaust next saturday and off to have me m8 do the axle location and back the week after for a full brake service and an mot if it passes ill be shocked but ill get it through oine in the end

Right it runs

Gotta finish the plumbing tomorrow had a few issues with the starter motor but sorted that one basicly it was sitting in to far as it got bolted up it locked the flywheel up so had to space it out a bit but nothing too bad really may have helped if i had got the right starter LOL

Im surprised it fired the first time of asking too which when you consider the engine has done over 200,000miles and been sitting outside for about 9 months with a cover over it is realy good lol

Ill keep ya posted on the bellhousings as if i dont get more people interested i wont bother as the costs are too high
