It's a real credit to you mate. Good luck and keep up the great work, Andrew 7 hours ago, HarleyFDMD said: Very impressive work! Thanks chaps, slowly getting there. Got the diff, prop and driveshafts all in and connected up so I could get the car out the garage for getting to the bolts for the front wings and remove the central glovebox to get to the old handbrake cable bolts. Was nice to see it out the garage, first time in just over 2 years. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob W Posted April 7 Author Share Posted April 7 As I had it out the car I decided to take the gear shifter apart to make it look abit better, albeit your never going to see it. Cleaned it up, Hydrate 80 then galv sprayed it to see how the finish would come out. Not perfect but a lot better then it was. Also managed to get the front wings and bumper off this morning to start on the front end. All come off without any snapped bolts to deal with which was nice, little wins are always welcomed! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mwilkinson Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 Nicely done. That housing definately needed some TLC. What was the galv spray that you used Rob? I may use the same on my door brackets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rob W Posted 23 hours ago Author Share Posted 23 hours ago Small package of random bits I missed from Amayama, I noticed when putting the prop back in that the new OEM doughnut was for an N/A so I had to fit the old one for getting the car out. Made some blocks to sit the rear wheels on now the back end is pretty much complete except a few minor things. Removed the prop again to fit the correct doughnut and torqued everything up, got a whiteboard up now so I remember what needs to be torqued and checked. Now it’s on to the front, will sheet the car up and get cracking on taking it all back when I next get the some free hours. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
