Dan, You're not wrong there, Hi-Lift handle Polyurethane block to stop it rattling. Paddocks £3.50, certain shop £12.50:eek: for a piece of plastic.

I'm at DB's tomorrow morning, hopefully to finish it. Sounds really sweet, it's got so much more grunt.:D

If all goes to plan tomorrow I'll be looking to take it out for a bit of a shakedown tomorrow night. Ryder is up for it. Not sure where to take it though, don't want to go too far, but I'd like to stretch it's legs a bit, just to make sure there's no problems.
 
I looked at Tree Wires at the local Chandlers near work, they'll make them up in stainless steel wire and fittings.

Just to let you know though, they're illegal on the road. (bit of a hazard to pedestrians);)

Another good day. DB had to change the Starter Motor as the one on it was shagged. I sorted the rubbing issues on the back, fitted new Bump Stops and Axle Straps, plus rigged up support brackets to reinforce the rear quarters, fitted front valance panel, tidied up the wiring, while DB fitted an electric radiator fan, then proceed to stick his finger in it while it was spinning, resulting in claret everywhere.
Still to do: tighten gearbox mounts, weld seat frames, re-fit floor, re-fit bumper, fit steering wheel, sort headlight main beam and 1 rear light.
Then it's done.:D
