Cheers for the comments guys progress is a bit slow at the minute just busy putting the engine together waiting on my inlet manifold and timing belt backing plate coming back from the powdercoaters

Managed to build my front legs back up bought new hubs bearings and bilstein shockers and had my springs powdercoated black
