Progress....finally!

Hovis:
Looking good mate. What size wheels have you got going on?

What are you going to do on the fronts? We haven't decided exactly what to do yet, couple of ideas though. Thinking either; cut the curved bit off and weld a new shaped plate in or cut slits and fold the curved bit up and weld a simple plate underneath to cover the holes.

Hovis:
I got this one because it was in better shape than my pickup and it was only £60!

What are you doing with the blue one? Have you got rid of it yet?

The picture of the seat in my gallery is the one going in the back, it's a half leather one from a 205 gti, it looks quite cool. The front ones are the same as the one in the pic below, just a different colour. They are really good, when I tipped the last jeep I stayed put! I reckon you could go upside down and you still wouldn't fall out!!

I haven't lifted it yet, i'm hoping that i don't have to. I reckon with the way I've done the arches there's about 1.5" to 2" more clearance. If i do it'll just be a small one, 1" or so, like i had on my 410 in the picture. Was thinking of doing a body lift as i had loads of trouble with the shackles i bought for the pickup.

There's an offroad day down here on the 4th of June so it's got to be finished by then, not to worried about the MOT but it's got to be ready.

Littledan:

and no the blue one hasnt gone yet hopeing to sell soon but dont kno what it is worth?  :? it a runner just with out any rear arches ?

Hovis:
Taa daa!!!!

All the welding is done, seats are in, bumper is done, all the lights work.

Can't believe the amount of space there is  :shock:  :shock:  :shock:

I jacked up the offside wheel until the nearside one left the floor and, whilst it doesn't show it awfully well in the pictures , there is still over an inch before the wheel reaches the arch!!

I'm still going to put a small shackle lift on it, just to make doubly sure.

Have found that the nearside wheel rubs on the front caliper  :(  Didn't used to on the old one so we are going to reverse the centres of the wheels. Only thing is I don't think the arches will cover the wheels properly. Have to wait and see.

Lick of paint and a stereo and it'll be finished........at last.
