    i'm chipping away,
    my car is completely stripped out , front to back.
    Putting ride height back to how it was originally, new front tyres, new 90/10s and mounts,
    new engine, box, prop, new shafts, spool, gears, and rear tyres.
    new fuel tank, pump and pipework.
    Although no one will notice , its virtually a new car !!
    hopefully i'll be done on time !!
    .
    Cannon ?? not touched it at all yet......i'm not sure if both cars will be done.

    ummmmm
    getting there, slow but sure.
    got bubonic man flu, the garage is a tip after dragging stuff off the shelves for the swap meet, alot of which will go back on the shelves till next year !!
    got most of the parts now, just a case of screwing it all back together.
    i think i'm on schedule with mine.
