Tran X box straight cut cr bought direct from Tran X, looking forward to fitting it this wekend










nice twin box 2 1/4 exhaust to go with the three piece manifold





and a decent cam belt, sierra handbrake cable, and sierra speedo cable (Forgot to buy the clutch cable, however there is always tomorrow- that little lot was enough)

Looking fantasic graham

I know what you mean about corner being turned ...good feeling isnt it

crack on gra and you might just be back ont road before me

[graham John]

thanks lads for the comments and encouragement, much appreciated.

i certainly feel that putting the glass in was turning a corner and opened out a whole load of things to do, from there i can fit the wiring, bits of trim wipers, etc and of course, the inside of the car can be fitted out.


By the way, a lot of you asked what the outcome was with the WCXM and the problems i had fitting it, quite simply, i was supplied the wrong engine mounts -TWICE


anyway, onwards and upwards,
