Hey, if you're going to throw around cash, it should either be on cars or girls. It's the law.

Great progress dude. But I thought you were going for a body swap with that tin top? Strong chance I just made that up though.

No real update. My stuff from Low Range is in the UK, duty paid and delivery is organised for Wednesday.

Delivery was attempted today but no one was home.

Just waiting on axle cases now.

Axle cases? Any pictures please? i'm curious as I'm just in the process of bracing a set of samurai axles to o on my 410, as I'd rather not run the risk of bending a front axle do it right first time I hope...
