thanks mate its been a hell of a lot of work let me tell you but getting there now

Lot of work gone into that so kudos.

 

Surprised you went with powder coating though (especially on cross member and rear subframe). Couple of years down the line it'll be chipped to buggery and letting water get at bare metal again.

its no probs just wanted it all in powercoat looks great. after all all power coat is stronger on chips that just paint plus the car will get used once a a weeks do its really not a prob

Looks great Dan...just dont forget the locking nuts on them tension rods looking at the pic:wink: or was that a tester:lol:

yes will nip em up but needs setting up now
