well ,spanners toy,, is progressing slowly  nothing much to show but planning and collecting parts , engine and trans is still waiting to be shipped from san carlos,
but wheels are here ,tyres are being picked from swap meet by a friend tommorrow along with spare holley carb, fenderwall headers,, ladder bars etc ,, etc,,
rear axle with a LSD is waiting for me to collect on monday locally but in the needs stripping and narrowing and rebuilding

front axle is back at the design stage yet again,, steering box is another item that needs collecting at a time suitable with its donor.

good job i,v got a fresh daily /parts hauler  Roll Eyes

well its slow progress as i,v not been well again  but,

i,v collected ,stripped, and rebuilt a front axle , still short of new discs etc but now working on mounting it in the right position.

engine should have been on felixstowe docks on monday the 13th but ship has been delayed and has now been diverted via rotterdam  so it will be early may before it lands
so ,basingstoke, trip  is now out of the window..

engine is at the docks ,, box =(container) came of ship monday  but customs siezed it for ,spot check,/inspection,, now the owner of the other contents would nomally go and unload it and i was supposed to meet and help and get my stuff but the powers that be have seen their ars# because customs interfiered and insist on dockers/stevadors doing it  but its a work to rule job
so god only knows how i,ll get my stuff
