Nah - I started to strip mine in April and its now nearly finished. OK thats 8 months ago, but in terms of days spent on it - just over a month :wink:

No dis-respect to you Colin mate :wink: but Colin is new to series and general mechanics. Its a fast learning curve but starting with a project like that can be a bit scary. I built my hybrid from scatch in 9 months BUT I had already built a series truck.
When you come to do one Colin, I should have the hybrid all ready to play properly so I'll try and give you a hand :wink:

Ash - I totally agree its a very daunting prospect and a very fast and steep learning curve. I bought my Series in Jan 2004 and ran it and off-roaded it for 12 months. Never done anything like that before, certainly no previous experience (only the odd oil change and brake pads on my old BMW320).
It was either scrap it and buy another or learn the hard way - so I chose the latter after much discussion with 3 Mud-club members (DPG, macca, and Muky-kid). Glad I did, but some days were very frustrating and on many occasions I nearly threw in the towel. I was very lucky aswell to be able to use the workshops at work and all the tools.
At least I now know that Mud-club members will offer assistance either through the forum, on the phone , or in person :wink: :D
landyman Ash:
Mud-clubbers are good at helping I'll say that!!!!!
Maybe if we get five or six of us together we can do Colins in a weekend and he can take us all for curry and beers :P :P :P :P :P :P :P
