Great Stuff there Carl...thanks for sharing the makeover.

Don\'t forget to look at the axle tie rod upper mounts in the rear wheel arches.....I assume you\'re leaving all the old worn suspension in place?......only joking Carl.....

We are going N/A with it.
Still lot\'s to do!
Suspension will be done all round over the winter but hope to have it running on stock suspension at first.
After engine is running we\'ll tackle brakes and all that side of things.

Carl

Problem is Karl that we seem to build alot of cars that are competitive for customers but not get our own done!
This one should be finished fairly soon.
