Didn't see this one coming. There are so few of them in white, let alone modified ones in white. |

I will be getting straight back onto it after new year.
This is why i did a dry run and built it up, so i know its just a case of me putting the jigsaw back together
Going to get it rolling and steering first, then attack it from all angles to get it ready to mot, _________________ Whale Oil Beef Hooked!

My mate at the bodyshop has done a mint job,
Its not flatted or polished yet,
That is straight out of the gun, and you can still have a shave in the reflection !
Should look nice rolling down the road _________________ Whale Oil Beef Hooked!

Just getting all the 4x4 running gear poly bushed up.
3 control arms for each rear corner
rear diff subframe poly bushed
Diff mount poly bushed
Propshaft is getting blasted and repainted
Took most of the nuts and bolts for electro plating, that is what im waiting for coming back !
In hindsight these should have been done and ready, i kept putting it off and now we cant do anything, but it will definitely be worth the wait.
All the bolts, washers and nuts are back to new !
Forgot to take a before and after pic ? _________________ Whale Oil Beef Hooked!
