the sort of mods that most people frown upon when modifying 8.4's to fit under 10's. There are no spacers fitted just modded callipers, hubs and 7.9" discs.

Well she runs, fired up on the 3rd turn of the key!

Had a small issue with a burst fuel hose at the reg. forgot to bleed the heater tap so got a massive air lock and lots of steam but sorted now just hope it didn't do any damage. got the gear selector box thing put back together arse backwards so got no gears at first but thats cured aswell now.

Just the usual pre-mot rust check tomorrow night and get the seat mounted in a nicer position and it should be good to go...

Tis a bit grubby at the minute but i'll clean it up when i know i don't need to mess under there anymore.
