Fitted up the rear beam at weekend and managed to get the rear end of my escos shell on the ground with the wheels on, front end should be done friday afternoon & I'll put up a project thread when its rolling.







Beam is std 2wd powdercoated,the swing cups in arms strengthened over. Std ford bushes, 7.5" diff and shafts 4x4 brakes (not on yet).
Billstein coilovers tarmac spec, solid diff and beam mounts.

Front end is getting adj tcas, compression struts, 330mm ap rotors & brembo brakes (off of a 7 series bmw AlpinaV12 IIRC), Leda remote res coilovers, eccentric top mounts.....

Is going to be 2wd as I can't justify the transmission repair costs of a powerful 4x4 transmission.

Got an engine being built up at Reyland, a proper cage on its way (to replace the 909 cage that was cut out of the car to fit interior ), Buckets, Roofskin coming off to fit non-sunroof version, poly windows, flocked dash, etc... will detail all and put up pics at weekend in a proper project thread & put link here.

What do you guys think of the rims?
They're Wolf rims that I got coated in charcoal colour. Got Michelin Pilot Sport 2 tyres 235/40/18 on front and 240/35/18 on rear.
