Tried the radio out in my mk2 yesterday when I saw swapping the radio back to the original, was tempted to put it in there but I'll wait for the mk1 to be done. Did sound awesome though!

Also started stripping down the gearbox, but I'm yet to crack it open, not sure if I should leave it to the pros or not. Started putting some of the gear selection linkage together too.
Gear box now, only missing a few bits.
I just want my shell back now all nice and painted

Really looking forward to how the shell turns out once its all dipped and painted. It will be so nice bolting all the shiney bits back on. Hopefully I'll be doing the same to my own in the months ahead.
Keep the updates coming, fantastic build thread and very subtle mods.

Progress has been slow because I've been on holiday and had to do a shed load of collage work for this week .
BUT now I have no more collage work to do, I've taken the hubs, wishbone clamps, front roll bar clamps and accumulator to work and shot blast them. Painted them but they need another coat and once that's done I'll get the hubs assembled .
Should be starting on the brakes sometime soon.
