Very nice work Scott. :thumbup:

I also like that you are taking the time to make it the way you want it. Even if that means going backwards some times. :doublethumbs: This is a much better way to approach a build then hurry through it just to get it done.

Thanks Terry, I'm really happy with how the transmission tunnel came out, it did take me a few attempts to get the transfer box levers in good positions, there isn't a huge amount of space to get everything to work and keep the tunnel cover nice and simple to make but I got there in the end.

I probably would have kept things a bit simpler if I didn't now have my own workshop. The first time I built this SJ It was a big learning curve, now I actually know what I'm doing and have the time and space to do so I want to get it exactly how I want it! Like you say even if it does mean going backwards sometimes!

Cheers for the positive comments :thumbup:

:hahaha: In the politest way possible you wouldn't be able to afford it! I can't and I'm the one building it :hahaha:

But no this SJ will never be for sale! I've put more time and money into it than you can imagine and it would never be worth me selling it! This SJ is a bit more than just a car to me. Wouldn't really call it a second girlfriend though as I'm not really into that sort of thing :S :lol:
