Well over the weekend I managed to get the diff bolted in and working! The downside is that I need new halfshafts, the asd shafts are shorter than normal. as a temporary fix I have cut and shut the old shafts. And just for a change, I painted the wheels rattle can black.

I had a dutchalet caret bumper in the first place that was well past its best so I pinched the mounts from that and fitted them too the new one. As purchased from seller they come without mounts. He also does the side skirts but unfortuantly for me they were too long as they were for saloon. He did offer too shorten them though and he also offered to fit anything I purchased. The bumper also came primed.

Thanks, they need powder coating black I think. Have to disagree i think it makes the car look classy/expensive with the silver wheels on the black paint.

A big thanks must go to Matty, who kindly bought down a pair of halfshafts to fit my new diff. Cheers Matt. Now I can get the car mobile again...

So I've now got a full black leather interior to go into the merc, be nice to get rid of the old mix and match grey one.
Proper update coming soon!

Just won this on ebay : It's an old 80's albrex supercharger kit, I'll have to see if it can be adapted to fit... So I found time to make some alterations to the blower kit over the weekend, and today I did a trial fit on my spare 3.0 engine. So far I've adapted the crank pulley to give me a toothed belt drive, got the kompressor mounted as high up as it can go, and made a adjustable tensioner pulley. The engine in the pics will be getting rebuilt as a low compression 3.4, using a diesel crank and honda conrods.
