Scottie's Zuke. Blue

[4eye]

Looks good mate,That week off should really get you on top of things! Cant wait to see it all covered in mud!

Keep up the good work, i'm sure you'll be there!

[ScottieJ]

Cheers for the comments peeps

the last 2 nights work!

now that the engine and transmission is in i flexed her up to find that i need to do even more trimming to the bulkhead and front arches. i'll start welding it all back up this weekend!









Then tonight i decided to fit the vitara radiator. I used the original mounts out of the vitara but with the O/S one i rotated it 90degrees so that it sits in front of the rad as the steering box is in the way. and then trimmed the N/S one so that it fits between the rad and the chassis.











made up some supports for the top.


trimmed the bonnet so that it closes
