Write then guys and girls time for an update got alot done this weekend with a lot of help from richy. Cheers fella
firstly taped the engine bay to protect the paint from heat

Then put the brake servo in

New windscreen

Then got the top mounts in they look trick


Then started putting the engine and gearbox together ready to put in but forgot to put the shit guard in :headbang:



Then got it in position ready to go in

Then just slide it in

and tighten the bolts

easy peasy


Then started on the suspension and now its fully adjustable

and its back on 4 wheels after 9 months





more Soon :icon_smile:
