Picked the gearbox up today, saw it briefly, then dropped it off to get the bell housing, clutch assembly made. Very happy with the result so far,
apart from the internals being in mint condition, the final drive has been changed to 5.25:1. much better gearing for what I want.

Had to get on with other jobs lately, however, Ive made a start making the front wishbones. should have the front end sorted in a few days, then hopefully the Gearbox and new bell housing will be back, and I can start the rear subframe, and suspension.

Extremely impressive. What type of finish is intended for the metal subframe and suspension components?

Richard, the subframes will be painted body colour, and the wishbones etc. will be powder coated. colour to be determined.
