Ash

I've been to your old house - where were you keeping it all??!! Did you have 3 underground levels that I didn't see??

Cheers

R&R
 
Been having a couple of days R&R. ;)

The last few hectic weeks are beginning to tell :(

I have managed to re-make the front lower wishbones ( Again ) :rolleyes:

Test fitted them together with one of the shocks to check the correct alignment.

Made a good start on the rear uprights



With a little luck, i'll get a few hours in tomorrow !!

Nice one Ronnie :cool: looking great, you,ll soon have it on wheels & sitting in the drivers seat making strange noises :D

are those steering rack extensions as per book? they look longer than the ones i got from Rally Design.

rear uprights will soon be in place eh ;)

well done:)

No wheels on my waggon
 
That is the plan Andy. On its wheels by the end of the month ;)

Yes the rack extensions are to the book spec.
The rack you see fitted is an original Ford unit ( Mk 2 Escort ). To be honest, absolutely nothing wrong with it that a good clean up & re-paint wouldn't cure.

I will know if any alterations are required when I get the front hubs fitted :eek:

Here's a better picture of my partly completed rear uprights.
