Busy times and it just seems like one problem after the other :'( each one a little more annoying then the last!
Got the balance pipe and extra mufflers in sounds great still loud but better. ;) put the new oil seals in the gearbox and diff went for a drive nearly hit the 2 biggest roos in the country at 2.30pm ... Big brake lock up just missed them :o got back look under it
No oil leaks :) :)

Hi Mate, if you move that turntable to back in line with the centre of the axle you might get away with out lifting it up. Ya gotta be happy witrh it anyway.

V8IN

Love the combo all together. Bet your one happy chappie now she's nearly finished.

Your old school picture is nearly perfect, next time move the 4x4 out of the background. LOL

Whoever welded the flange on the crossover pipe needs to be banned from welding, especially on a project as neat as this.

That is one very neat looking unit, and will be high on my "must see" list when we get to Mudgee. The postings and viewing of your resto must be well up in the all time listings, testament to a great read. Cheers

Shes coming up a treat Ol Mate!

Thanks for taking the time to show us through your resto, each step of the way.
Especially the bits that didn't quite go to plan and required an extra yard or two to make it just right...

Its not always plain sailing, sometimes things test the patience and the wit, more than just a little.
As i am sure many of us have found....more often than not, the hard way.

Again Mate..Top Job [smiley=thumbsup.gif]
Appreciate the effort you have put in..on and off the camera.
Almost time to sit back and enjoy it..

Thank you again..

regards

Got to agree with all the positive responses :) :), and its always good to have something for someone to complain about just like my phillips head screws :D :D.

Now that V8IN is just about finished who is going to step up and take the bat and ball for the next full resto.
