Nice!

Wots the rear quarter of chassis like?
Looked at a D2 chassis for a friend the other day and I was actually taken aback by how bad it was, especially top of chassis rails near rear spring mount! Personally put me off d2's for life (although I do notice in the new lrm a company now supplying galv chassis' for them)!

Yep, just do not do a search for the supplier here, ....LOL. Some are surprisingly good...but most of the D2 chassis are bad...LOL.

My D2 chassis only lasted 13 years before I had to replace it with a new galvanised one. Now the chassis is still brilliant but the body is beginning to corrode in places, It's only 18 years old and a mere youngster with only 252,000 miles on the clock.

Nice looking disco but do those tyres make the ride noisy?
