Been a couple of busy weeks in Mezzmo land! Had the baby totally soda blasted now all the body work has been finished. Went round today and the boys have fitted the lift up tailgate, cut in and set the wb taillights, hung all the doors to check gaps etc and had it finished off in high fill.They reckon she'll be in undercoat by the weekend and painted by the 5th or 6th (fingers crossed) - typical, i have to go away for work for 3 weeks on the 9th so wont even get time to play with her "BUGA"

having a wealth of experience with mechanics, panel beaters, painters, auto electricians etc etc i'm pretty close to betting that it still wont be painted when i get back on the 30th of October - always best expect the worst. If its done before i go Edd the pics will be up like lightning!!

hi rogue, thanks man i was looking at changing the diff's before the 202 transplant from the old rusty camper but it does about 2.3 shaft turns to 1 tyre so a normal beddy diff  :'(

oh well saves a job  ;D

will fix brakes and put back in as i'm going to make the old chasis into a 1.5 tone traller.

In case you're interested I'll be going to a Jag diff probably early next year. Wanted to do it sooner but at the rate I'm going early next year is more realistic especially as I have to get this V6 in as soon as possible.

When I do I'll have a diff with Cresta gears in it needing a new home. As you're local it would be an easy pick up.
