Andy Gallacher has agreed to do it, its not been done yet, but then again it wasnt just your std 4wd conversion i was having (or may still be having ) as it was a full blown competition car the conversion was alot more involved, its due to be in just before xmas at Andy's.

unless i go rallycross with it yet - im not sure.
