Yes, it takes some time to do everything, but it is worth it in the end when everythings starts to come together! :)

guga18If: If you buy a kit, it should be instructions included on a CD. So just read that and give it a try! :)

I've got a bit done now anyway! :)
There is not much, but a beginning to the chassis anyway!
I have started on the rear … and it was really beautiful to begin with! :/




And after a while it looked like this..:


And then i also needed a little bushes too! Model: harder!






And also some new bolts!










Also new bolts to the rear shock absorbers (the black ones)

Just thought of a thing ..
I will soon start to whit the brake pipes and so i thought to hear whit you guys how i should do?
They were removed when I got the car so I dont have anything to compared whit how its was fitted before.

I had thought some thing like this from the cylinder:
1: Left front.
2: Right front.
Then I get a bit confused .. should No. 3 from the mastercylinder go to No. 2 on the brakeregulator? and No. 4 from the mastercylinder to No. 4 on the brakeregulator??


(borrowed picture, let me know if I should remove it)

My New Year's resolutions are: 1. Stop making lists. B. Be more consistent. 7. Learn to count.

ive just piped mines up on a late type master cylinder , i used as much judgement as possible but mostly guesswork , a kind soul did mail me a pic of the correct order on the compensator , my thinking was to have it redone at an mot garage if its incorrect as i often wait weeks n months n get no answer lol

Desperado - Thanks! :) Yes, I will try to keep the thread alive! :)

peeriehutchie - Okay :)
But maybe there is someone who can be so nice that they can look under their car and tell us how theys is come to? :)

If you look at this picture it should be, as I wrote … I think..it's a bit hard to interpret this picture really!

But many seems to have made it in other ways, such as my borrowed the picture above?
Heres one way to, but is that right?
