Bloody weelie bin weighs a tonne
Plan to get the front clip off before I go back to work, maybe the lads will pitch in at the Nats meeting on the weekend

Heh Greg, I had to ask the wife what you mean. After a couple giggles, she told it was a big F#*d DIFF.
Still not sure why she was talking about a diff, with her girlfriends last year but good to she is in the car stuff

Hey Gaz;
Did the 9" come with brakes if so what are they and if not what are you going to run, the 9" I did for Kens V8 FC came with Commodore brakes but whoever did the diff had cut the ends of the tubes when they shortened it and welded the commodore ends on.
Regards
Neil

Front clip off today, no rust on the upper firewall
quick hose off
Now strip and freshen up the firewall with a bit of GMH Black before installing the new clip.
Oh and a few more kgs of red dirt
Cheers

You didn’t waste any time getting the subframe off Gazza. Obviously not worth saving. Interesting the difference in condition between that and the rest of the body.
