That orange mex that went for 10k was probably 1 of the bet mk2's i've seen, 6 linked big tranny and diff tunnels fully stripped proper smart bit of kit. It was basically ready for a cossie motor which i'm sure i could get for 2k, i'm not after a mental build mk2 just a nice well put together example.
