So after 12 months of mocking up, fabbing stuff, faffing about, changing my mind, procrastinating, getting side tracked etc etc things are finally starting to move along less slowly, so time to start my build log!

TBH the only really issue I've had has been getting a gear shift I'm happy with, I really didn't want to go with cables and getting a shift rod to work was harder than I thought. The main problem being the selector shaft doesn't come straight out of the gearbox, rather it points up and to the left to run straight up the tunnel to the shifter in FWD form, and converting that to work on the other side of the motor for middie layout was a pain in the ar$e.
But after trying probably 7 different methods, and 2 different set of engine mounts to change angles I'm happy the way it turned out.
To the pics, here's some shots of early "throw the body and some wheels onit for a photo" photo or 3
