X-box... It Moves.. it really moves!!

[PaulJL]

Another 110 mile run last week. No issues apart from slightly hotter at motorway speeds. I did accidentally get to a speed that I can't say on here but if I kept that speed it would only take an hour to do the full trip..... she was pulling like a freight train!
I've ordered some of those rubber flaps to go into the rad cowling to increase flow when moving. This will hopefully help keep her cooler.

I've had a day at the drag strip. Diff locked up. Limped it home and as I pulled onto the drive there was the familiar crack of a blown diff.
2 meetings, 2 diffs

Yes I know I keep breaking it but... that's as close to a power wheelie as I can get. The nsf tyre is smoking as its skimming the tarmac. I'm also moving the new sub box from behind the seat and into the dashboard

Thought you’d gone 4 WD

Frame and tray fabricated. Just need to drill holes to fit it then take it back out for paint before a final fitting and wiring

This guy actually laughed until the light went green......

Fame at last

When I re arranged the dash gauges I was looking for a pod style red warning light for the oil pressure. I gave up and just fitted a standard red one. I found a cycle light at a mid week car boot sale for 50p. It needs work and a new bulb holder but it will look really nice if I use it

Cool, drop it in a bucket of citric acid and the rust will dissolve

 

[PaulJL]

Will do although the plan is to spray it matt black.

Minus the rust

5 mins with a brillo pad

The Mrs just gave me this. She spent weeks drawing it in pen and ink. It's definitely going on the wall

Splendid picture.

Love that - proper charm to it

I cleared the back out and lifted the flooring ready for surgery. I must admit that I'm a tad apprehensive to cut up a perfectly good floor though. There are always unseen extras in the process of upgrades....

 

[PaulJL]

I dropped my grinder and the number plate panel fell off, leaving a huge hole in my floor!

 

[Panky]

How careless of you

Oops
