Feeling alot better about the car today. I bought yet another gearbox so I could use the selector.
I fitted the new slave, metal pipe and the selector, then I crack on putting it all back into the car.
Once that was in I built up all of the front steering and suspension.
Mocked up my exhaust which I had shortened, and the O2 sensor moved.
Then I put the wheels on and dropped it on the deck, to check for ground clearance, 2 1/2'' so not too bad.
I'm really happy about getting it off the axel stands.

Fingers crossed it won't be a cock up like last time with all the crashes.

My plan is to have it mapped and ready, for the Spring action day.

Once the tyres are knacked, I was planning on having the wheels done in silver. They need a refurb anyway.

I got a load more done today, I started off with the intercooler.
This was just a mock up, and I moved a few bits around after I took the pictures, and I really need another crash bar.
After I was happy with it, I sorted out the fuel, and water hoses. It's getting there, I need a soldering iron to crack on with the wiring.
