quite a bit more progress on the chassis suspension all on, engine in with its newly coated rocker covers and plenum all well so far, the fit for everything on the new chassis has been good body soon.

lots more done built up the engine bay all the wiring plus upgraded the starter/charging circuit and fitted bespoke jump start plug, the old 100 amp fuse holder has gone and a nice manly marine version installed no more trouble there then, seat belts back in, cooling systemic, so new alarm and tracker to go rebuild dash and push the button.
