Hi you are doing a proper build there I could only dream of having that engine and gearbox/diffs I all so do 7 days a week and 14 hours a day but I well never get close to your part list!!!
Did you get the parts off Tony and Tim

Gaz 88

steven mc kay

i am a flooring contractor , before the down turn in work i had 4 men and my self fitting 6 to 7 days per week 90 hrs+ per week , i had 11 years like that , now i am on my own fitting with one man workin for me , works a lot slower here in northern ireland , if it had allways been like this i would not have a good parts list or the spec of a car that i have, i have started selling vans and doeing 24hr recovery as a second job. also i work odd nights learning body repairs ( means i can repair my own vans i am selling)

yes i no tony conway and tim gore very well, i am talkin to tim almost every week at some point, all my grpa / wrc parts came from them.

thanks steven
