New arrival time No space to put it though!!! Nearly a complete car but will probably be used to tart mine up rather than to put on the road. Original gel coat shell in fair nick, chassis fair to good, will shot blast it and see what happens. Would be good to mock up the new engine and box though

Looks to be a serious lack of gaffer tape and lights on that red one though!

wheels modified 4x108 and now 4x4" as well welding transits M8 bought a new tipper bed but it had a slight tinworm problem :/ Cut rear crossmember right off as it was totally shot Still a bit to do so cut that off careful alignment New rear crossmember We then had to mount the new bed to the original chassis, needless to say the bracket did not line up, so we cut them off bolted them to the chassis and then sat the new bed on and welded it down
