Even though it will be finished this week it won't be seen on the road just yet. Got to finish a certain MINUS first as we always said they would be done together. Fortunately I have a 2 mile private drive to test it on :wink: just a bit bumpy though :sad:
Have to get Ade to get his finger out and hurry up :grin:

That is an awesome project. Have you decided how to cover the back over? If you are going to?

Actually did some work on it this week. Made a rear brace to support the bodwork. Also acts as exhaust and chain guard mounting.
Took it for a drive and found a horrible knocking noise from the front :sad: . Think it's because i've taken out the rubber bump stops from the front suspension. Will be putting some replacements in and testing again later this week.
Also found lots of play in my reconditioned steering rack
This means dropping front subframe to fit another one
