Alright Paul sounds good, many thanks

Thank you for taking the time to get the pics though, by the way.

I'm sorry Paul but I think those panels will be too rough for what I'm ideally looking for Seeing as this is starting from scratch I'd like the panels as straight as poss cos they'll be so kind of template And the fact that they are cut is not ideal either So for the time being thank you, but...

It's just whether the exterior panels are ok Or shot to ****! :p

Not sure tim will need to measure up I mean there is currently enough clearance from what I can see But I really don't until I offer a tyre up Will probably buy one first for testing!

I think I'll be getting the panels off Paul D if they're straight enough :D

I honestly don't expect much more than that The outer panel will bolt on and then there will be half a door aperture that needs welderising and maybe a few panel brackets here and there Will have a good look round the donor vehicle and pinch what i can ready cut!

I'll set it on fire before I bobtail it chaps :)

Yep door are the same, just bolt on the three door quarter, and then fill in the gaps Dimensionally the cars are identical, just the rear doors that alter things a bit, but should be no big deal, I'm not scared of cutting the ####er up :D

SOLD to Alex001 :) Great to meet you and MrMayze, look forward to seeing you on some lanes in the near future!

Where do you start? I'll show you :p

I don't know about that but you can get big torque converter kits for 22s from ashcroft and they are a fabulous mod, can make it drive almost like a manual

Yeah I mean I'm not holding my breath until I see them in person They say they stand around 13" wide but this might be unmounted Either way they are recommended for a 12" rim, but I was thinking a 10" beadlocked will make an 11" give or take Really trying to keep tread ballooning to a minimum...

Nope all motors bolt together HP24 is electronic that's all

Well... It's a long story but the short version is im kinda hankering over some larger tyres Or at least some days I am some days I'm not I really don't want to spoil the drive characteristics too much but have to face facts that these tyres aren't realistically tall enough Have set eyes on...

Nice one Drizz

and if you're putting any decent amount of money into a 94mm block it is my estimation that you should top hat it 3.9s are ok cos they never ran that hot so tend not to fail as badly, but 4.6 in a p38 ran on a piping hot thermostat and is just not a trustworthy motor without tophats imo I mean...

I never said don't strip the new motor down and start again, but for the prices of them you might as well start with a runner rather than one that has been stressed Anyway I have to say I'm excited to hear what's the dealio with the old motor

Defo defender though?

Extreme :D Hey Drizz might aswell ask I'm thinking about doing some similar work to my car to take 37s Won't be touching the chassis, just going 3door conversion and arch tubbing to take the tyre size What arch extebsions are they? They look ideal All the best, Sam
