I guess I could but I really couldn't be fagged.

The time for an underside detail would have been when it was all in bits but given the timeline that circumstances imposed we just had to get it going. Even so that was never a priority.

Great to hear from you
So are you looking for a driver or are you going to blow a tonne of cash and your sanity and get a project

Thanks mate. I felt like a change and got those Challengers cheap but pretty much as soon as I put them on I was wanting to go back to the Simmons. The main sticking point was the rear tyres for the Simmons needed replacing as they were really old, perished and had no grip. A hard to get size which I had to import from the states.

It's amazing the difference fresh rubber makes!!
