Subby looks good all painted up

Thanks it's not to great up close but it's protected now so it will do lol

I've been following this with great interest. Great work. In your opinion, do you think it'd go in a roundnose? I'm thinking about this conversion for my van, I wouldn't mind going for the 5 speed.

With a 5 spd Itvmay well do but it would be extremely tight, soon I think ford are swapping the inlet and exhaust side round so then it would

so i boxed it up and got it all thrown together to get it back to my own garage so bolted the slam pannel and front panel back on, fitted bonnet pins brake pipes and loads of bits then i drove it back!!! and pulled it back apart lol..... rust in now on the list ....
heres a pic to show the drive shafts excuse the brake they are being upgraded shortly...

another of the mounts
managed to find some time to clean the bike from the l2b off road ride two months ago lol

then it made it back home i drove it about 10 miles or so

now on with the rust...





got a little happy with the hammer and screwdriver........

Uh oh thatll keep ya busy... how was the drive tho?

Yeah pretty good only problem was 2nd gear was a little hard to select sometimes, so will get the backend welded then mot Jan proberley now

so ive had a little break recently to try get some motivation back, then welding is pretty much done on the underside, gote the cutdown subby seam welded and make up the mounts and had a play with the radius arms...

Looks good. I would add some extra fixings on the beam on the inside of the arm mounts through the heel board.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

Like this...

Yeah I will ad some have you reneforced the heelboard on the area where you have bolted it ?

Also thanks for the arm and beam

Looks good! I'd just use a little plate or large thick penny washers to spread the load on the heal board.

Yeah that's what I was thinking ive herd some people triangulate them to the floor if you know what I mean
