Thanks for the Photo's Clive, the car is looking good.
Will the car be making its debut at Huntly's opener or will we all have to go up to Auckland Opener to see it?

We aren't 100% sure where it will be running first, it all comes down to when the car's completely finished etc as you would imagine, but it maybe heading further aloft for its first run

It would be great to see some of the work being done on this great car - especially to see some of the fresh work done underneath. Much of a battle getting the Toyota in? cheers for the updates, and hopefully the photos later on! Just more to answer your question theobserver, it was a bit of a mission looking at the chassis rails, the left top rail has been lifted quite a bit to accomodate the change of engine.also to note, there is a whole new footwell setup in the car now, with a new brake/clutch/accelerator setup

Sorry for the lack of updates people, been kinda flat out lately The car is basically done, bar fitting front calipers / body and setting it up. The truck is nearly done too, going for a cof soon and getting a general tidy up ;D Will post pics once they are finished Cheers Clive

We will be at the nz's unless something shocking crops up Unfortunately i have to work through christmas/new years, but i will be flying down to dunners to crew at the nz's
