Ahh ollie nice work on getting the wing mate, thats awesome
Will come have a look at that for you at some point once my MOT is out of the way!

I'm happy to come grind/weld for you... (no offence, but) Im not letting you use my welder as its the most expensive tool i own

Yer no problam mate was asking you too !!

I might steal the old wing off you though, could use in future for light body repairs lol

Well chuffed you're getting this one sorted Ollie.

How long till you're 17?

Must be pleased it's starting to come together and should be ready to go for when you pass your test.

Now its just the challenge of finding a ton of money for the goddamn insurance!

Yeah. Doesn't matter what car now though, all insurance for new drivers is sky high.

Thats not the main problem. The big one is convincing my mum that its safe !

Looks safe enough to me.

This would trash a little hatchback

Wow - Dan, that's impressive! I know that cars have become safer and safer lately (a crash that would have killed you in a 1990's car will generally leave you shaken up but walking away in a car from the last 10 years or so), but I also thought that the SJ probably wasn't as safe as some more contemporary cars.

I guess being sat on a nice steel ladderframe chassis has some real benefits! You'd walk away from that crash with bruises. Most other cars designed in the era the SJ was would probably have folded up fairly neatly, with squishy driver/passenger gumbo leaking out all over the road.

well after rolling one i think they are pritty safe and i was going about 50mph into a corner think i thought i was in my old ford sierra
