Dropped the lump out of this today so will be getting the RATS treatment all round .Turrets are good and only the outriggers needing attention .I have all running gear ready and will be tidying up the lump as well .I will also be swapping oput the Miami Vice interior for std leather or Velor .Early car so rear seats don't fold down but I can convert to suit the leather set .
Without paint will be around 6k when I'm done .....

All out for rebuild .


What came out ....

What's going back in

New bits to go on ,alt,waterpump,starter,clutch,forkarm,bush,TDC sensor.Powdercoated or enamelled covers/bling .All running gear/subframe refurbed ,new bearings,balljoints,bushes and bolts ..Wheels off and away for blasting and powdercoat .
Miami Vice leather and interior sold and going to be redone with age related velor + retrim carpets with black
All rot has been sorted and was confined to the outriggers.
Lump looks good .Was a bit smokey but down to the old catchtank setup pipe being blocked solid .

Lump back together ,new clutch just arrived so can bolt it up and reinstall into refurbed frame

Thanks to Vince this morning for a std carpet set Will give it a good old jetwash and dry before popping it in

[BIG_MVS]

Brilliant work Roland! Main thing is that it's another one saved from being tucked away forever or even broken for bits.

Remember though Paint sells cars....

Yes but then I'd be a busy broke fool
Add up that little list .....Car already owes me 5k without any labour but if a jobs worth doing .......Hopefully someone can see past the bling on the outside ...The paint is OK ,usual GTA issues here and there and will buff up decent enough for a car that can be used

Heart back in after open day .
Have taken off front bumper etc as rad was showing slight leak and ready to build front end back up tomorrow .

Them Rats don't hang around!

Modern day Elves and the Shoemaker ..Told you it was Grimm up North

Front end fettles and general nice to have bits going on .Got some good Koni adjustables for rear and Gaz for front .
No-one here interested in what will be one of the most sorted mechanically cars out there ........
I've had the alloys refurbed and there is a choice on interiors incl leather

I'm sure someone will buy Lee...... don't want you to have to break into a song and dance routine.
