looks like an awesome project so far with much wonga spent on it!
Setbacks are inevitable with any project, judging from the state the car was in when you first got it, its come a long way & credit is due here as the car now looks great!
Hope the issues with the hubs gets resolved soon!

it's getting there. Still having some driveshaft issues but almost everything else is done
Once the driveshafts are in, the big brakes are going back on and it's mapping time!

well another update just incase anyone thought I had forgotten about it lol
Still can't get hold of the right drive shafts anywhere. Rover 420 apparently from a petrol or Diesel fit, so if anyone sees any for sale give me a shout please!
It's looking all sorry for itself again, propped up on a pallet with no wishbones, uprights, wheels or brakes!

well no joy with any of the local sources, but I'm hoping to have another set and a radiator on the way soon!
I've put a deadline on the brakes now as I've had enough... either they're finished by the end of the month or I'm going somewhere else!

cheers lads!
The last few bits are still coming in. Hopefully there will be a turbo radiator, the right drive shafts and a Sheddist clutch kit in the post this week.
Once I get the brakes back and plubed in then it can finally go for mapping!
