Been really busy lately but the engines in and running Need to buy a 90° bend for the turbo side of the cooler to make it sit right



Brand new rad



Still loads to sort out and clean up and paint



Most of the car has been built back up



Looks better in real life the camera makes it look mega green





Battery tray bolted in boot




Equal length shafts(boots have been sorted and they've been fitted now)



2.5'' system cat will be removed once the car is drivable
