I feel for you I really do. You must be at the point now where you really know in your heart of hearts that its not going to be ready despite the fact that its been gone what 2.5 years and no doubt you have sent him thousands of pounds. No matter how many people go through this people still send him work. Just so hard to believe really.
I have had some lovely updates this week to show it is on track and most of the metal work done. I am getting very excited now The extra space here is due to the actual gearbox being the Oppliger long box.
Chassis rails Who doesn’t love a dimpled hole?

good question, I am going to get my body shop mate to have a look, most likely is body colour but with a hardener or rhino liner, something tough. Might just have it glossy like the top of the car and have a paint protection film over, the joints will have a very thin tiger seal, I expect. It is having WRC stands under there too.
What's the story with the long box?.i have one in my escos but haven't really investigated what it's about lol
Its 25mm longer due to middle spacer, front prop will need a spacer or lengthened (i had mine extended and balanced), rear has enough adjustment albeit in an Escos, i run the sequential in my Escos.

I had a new front prop made along with a new rear, my car is 22cm shorter on the back so had shorter prop anyway (original was out of balance) plus the supra diff has the spacer ‘ adapter although if the rear prop needs changing due the engine having moved quite a way back I will have it made with a supra rear flange.
My propshaft was made a the same place as you had yours done Toby . It's got a skyline front UJ and the rear is a supra UJ and done as a skidder propshaft so no center bearing very nice bit of kit and it works spot on and all brand new

Hopefully going with the same type on mine (if i ever get my arse in gear)
Well, with my holiday looking like it was about to get cancelled a couple of weeks ago I thought I would be able to get my motorbike test done (what little did I know). I thought I would buy a nice 125 to get some saddle time before the test, my last bike was a new DT125. So, I managed to find a lovely 1991 French import with just 4000 miles on the clock. It is totally original.
I am going to put Supermoto wheels and tyres on as it isn’t going off road.
My friend had an MBX 50, he lost concentration and rode in to the back of a parked car.
another friend had a tzr 125 as he was one of the first to get a job, he was a carpenter. He later had the power valve activated and he said his would go over the ton too.

The posh way was an electronic control valve that closed for low revs and opened for high revs
Mine was just locked open full bore, no power below 5500 rpm 😂 lol
Was great fun pal good times

The DT above has the "posh" power valve, it pulls from low down and revs cleanly to 10k, the French Bike’s don’t have the same restrictions that the U.K. stuff have.
