Smudger's 20vt Project A.K.A Patsy. (Update 07/06/2015 Got the love back)

Theres a few bits of the running gear I need to get around to ordering though. Gearbox is priority so I can put it in for a rebuild and I dont get held up by it

I'll wait for Pete to get back to me and go from there.

Hi guys, I used a wavetrac lsd on my conversion.  Heard very good thing about them, mine cost me just under grand with arp bolts and fitting kit which includes seals and bearing/gaskets.

Thanks for the info Pete. I think it's best if we get a firm list of those interested for the wheels to turn after June when your friend is available.

I will send you a PM about it mate.

Luv u Smudge

My nan lived the other side of the 406 In Palmers Green.

smudge will be a  master once his is finished

Just read the whole lot!

Excellent work, bet you can't wait to give it the beans

So love this car!!!!

Managed to get a few bits done to the car today in the sunshine.

Using the ashtray hole for my 3 gauges………



Finally got the fuel pump fitted up and in place



Clutch cable now fully fitted………





New steering wheel



And finally the expansion tank all done……



Next up is JonP's mate to bleed brakes and get them setup properly. Then it's the loom. The one I have is a complete nightmare so we have decided to cut our losses with it and go on the hunt for another one so if anyone knows of a 20v AGU loom ready converted please let me know.

Hopefully more updates next week

Looking good Smudger, I'll keep my eyes open for a loom for ya!

Nice updates there  what will your gauges be reading?

I have a Depo 52mm water temp gauge already but still undecided on the other 2. Am considering oil temp/pressure and/or a boost gauge. Any suggestions gratefully received
