Started a new job early last year & have been away from home for quite a while so haven't made much progress in the last 12 months but had this month off so took the opportunity to get a few more bits sorted!


Engine is now down with Piero at X Power engines


Gearbox & front diff have been off to Bara for a rebuild, got them back yesterday,







Rear calipers back from Biggred,

Hello mate, sorry have not looked at this thread for a long time!


I used some heavy sound deadening material I found, I think I've got quite a bit of it left I will check and let you know.
