HJ Prem . . .

 New front tyres finally added to the blackened GTS rims with chrome centre cap. These things will look fully sick when the car gets to sit down low over the rims with its new paint job. Paint scheme is really going to 'make' this car . . .
New tail-shaft needed to be made up because the old one came from a four speed(M21) and 10bolt combination. Now we have Turbo 350 and Ford EL Borg Warner diff centre. Andrew got stuck into it this morning and used the original shaft tubing, cut to length, Ford coupling from an XH panel van and the front yolk that was sitting in a box full of second hand yolks gathered up over the years. After I ground all the surface areas back to bare metal, I then applied 3 coats of flat black enamel and she's all set to get mounted into position sooner or later. . .
