its going to take a bit of work yet , and theres a new flat boot floor to go in and the whole rear end to be cleaned down ,
going to have to speak to mark and get the full info to work out the location and more importantly the hight of the cradel as that seems the stumbling block right now ,
wenny said hes got a complete beam there so worst case ill mock up the rear with a stock beam to get a better idea of beam locations and go from there but im sure mark can help with locatings
ohh and when asking wenny if i can borrow his 680 hp yb ????

the spit im using is made from two engine stands marc
basically once the mounts were attached to the car we slid the stands on with the car still on the dollys ,
we then simply lifted the shell vertically and the stands swung under the car into there vertical position ,
kinda difficult to explain if you get me , but a peice of piss to do
