I'm currently in Bulgaria but have managed to source a leaf spring so will get that sent home when I'm back and then put it back through the test and have a proper go in her! I will eventually change it to independent suspension and put the 4x4 drive back on but before that I will use an disc'd Capri axle and sort out the supercharger ! Can't wait to have a proper spin/slide in her!!!

Got the leaf spring fitted and the disc'd Capri axle fitted found the 7 spokes rubbed against the springs cause the axle is narrower and different offset so have spaced wheels 20mm each side ! Back in for mot when handbrake cable arrives !! I will get some pics up soon !!

Hi Guy's is this P100 still about ? As Im looking in to building one just for fun and Football with my son. Easy to take the posts and nets the the pich lol . I was thinging of a Thunder saloon kit aswell . Love the Look of a P100 with the Mk1 sierra front. They were built in South Africa from 1971 till 1993 and then in Portugal. So they must of built a Mk1 Sierra as they didn't get the Sapphire till 1992 in South Africa, but saying that the P100 had the Grill and short bonnet before the Sapphire ever came out as did all South African XR6's GLS and GLX 3.0's due to the heat over there.
LOVE IT ANYHOW

Hey yeah I still have it working on mocking up the supercharger on a spare engine I have! The p100 before the Sierra shape was based on a cortina front end and are even more rare than mk2! Good little fun project really body work will be done over the winter!
