Sorry for slow updates, the internet has been down at home for to to long!

Not much in the way of pictures, but a lot to tell you all about.

Firstly all of the tube work is finished. Cross in the roof, center piece down the screen. Rock sliders, floor, transmission tunnel done. All steering shortened and fitted.

Rear prop has now been shortened, plated up the back of the chassis where i cut the rails off.

I have started but plate up the front and rear bulk heads, but of a job as the front is a mixture of angles.

STILL TO DO

Fuel tank to make and fit
Brake lines to fit and bleed up
Fuel lines
Finish all plating
make new shock cones and fit new shocks.

And a whole lot more!

My other hobbies include tractor pulling...

I can assure you that the 200 will be making a big noise, with some big boost and a lot of smoke!

More progress today,

New front brake calipers fitted, along with all the new brake lines from Llama 4x4. Shocks Fitted and clutch and brakes all bled up.

Out for the first test run.... no clutch :(

Forced it into gear, took of down the yard, handbrake well and truly on, foot on the clutch, took of. After about 700 yards a big bang, clutch now free and fully working haha.

Backed it round the back of the shed, sheet over and water out over winter. I wont have a lot of time to do anything to it now, so park her up till next year.
