The thing is I don't have much time, hence why progress is a bit slow Sad

Welll this project is at an end i feel since family matters are out of hand.

Please feel free to email me over parts and i will try to get back to on some prices.

BREAKING is NOT confirmed as such but is more than likely hinting towards that way

Sorry to ruin the thread

Tragic news. A great thread too. Do not feel too disheartened. Brunel's most ambitious project never made it off the shore. It would be great if you could find a home for it.

Great news everyone, some might have know ive had family issues which conflicted with my car meaning the possibility of throwing it away.
But since the slapping about abit from people ive decided to bite the bullet further and move the car away from my house into what is classified as a 'shed' at a friends.

So from now, i will not only have to carry on doing the norm of building the engine/box, but have to use my minimal welding skills to finish of the plates, finish off the filler work and paint the engine bay. I know the basics but by god ive never done anything on this level before!

To slightly celebrate, i stripped my BE4 conversion gearbox to fit the new crown wheel and pinion.... To find it also needs a reverse gear and two bearings @ £140 inc vat total Laughing

Fairly simple to do, must be honest (might consider doing it as a service tbh)
(excuse the pictures)

 


 


 


Happy days everyone!
