What a good little project you have here, and for such good money!


Are you doing the work yourself?



Yeah it was a bargin! :P

Yeh me and my dad are doing it! We both work shifts so its hard to both be off at the same time to get stuff done! :lol:



Good to hear though :P I wish my dad was still around to do this sorta thing :genius: I miss him, wouldn've loved to have had a project car to work on, he could have shown me how to weld and how to spray!

Good luck with you're project ScottiBoi, will be keeping an eye on it :)

Oh don't worry about apologising, he passed away several years ago now. Might be nice in the future for me to dedicate a project to him ^_^

Looking forward to seeing some more photos :lol:

Ha ha, never mind! The Quickshift are very easy to fit and really easy to get used to, its a little disconcerting to start with but after a few gear changes you get used to it. Its also really weird having a lift collar reverse now instead of lifting the whole stick

Ok then Dan this in another thing to think about! I can always fit it when the rest of the poject is done! The main concern is to get it done for the L2B :ohno:

Right... today the doors are reskinned and ready for primer! :dontgetit:

Pics to come soon when i can download the camera! :lol:

Nice one Scott, you got a nice start to the project there, the floor pan looks great, shame about the doors though but seen you have new skins for them now, much more rust elsewhere?
George :thumbsup:

Hey George!

Yeah its a good starting point! Yeh it has had a whole new front end put on so we dont really have much left to do on the front other than chop some of the wing away to allow for my new arches and wheels.

The doors have been re-skinned now just waiting to downoad them off the camera. Pics to come soon :(. Erm the rest of the rust is on the reasr arches around the rear windows, around the gutter and also a bit under the rear.. Subframe out jobby! :)

Ooh. I've done it now!
So your target is L2B 2010. I should be ready as long as Burnard is about to help with the welding.
There is quite a lot to do... :(
