hit a wall for ages.... my wife was out of work and focusing on uni, so the savings plan went out the window Smile

but she is back in work full time with a pay rise, so its full steam ahead.

today i pick up a clutch, full plug in loom for the adaptronic i also pick up Smile

still looking for a gearbox... w58 or 57 would be the best but i cant seem to track one down here in brissy too easy Sad

engine bay has been poorly seam welded Smile Im kinda over the whole thing a bit and just REALLY wanna drive it Smile so i have changed the plan a bit.

not doing any of the fancy things i had planned for the body... just get the heart in and driving. Then when i have my new 2 bay shed up, im finding a shell and starting from scratch on the body. all rust cut and fresh steel, seam welded, equal length trailing arms, inboard pedal arrangment, fancy fuel system, perspex windows etc etc etc. Also a new rear end using a f series diff. All sandblasted and properly prepped with a trueno front end. Then drop and swap with a few changes im sure ill think of between now and then Smile

All things being equal i should have the engine placed by the end of next weekend.... then gearbox needs sorting and tailshaft modded. and besides a final tune on the adap - it already has a nice beams program on it, we just need to clean it for quads Smile- it should be good to go. will have a bit of fecking about with brake booster etc, but should all be going wanderful for the annual Smile

oh yeah and ANOTHER dodgy paintjob Smile

heres my welding mask... came with the welder ..... gggrrrrrrrrrr
