MattyZ Posted December 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2010 yeah exactly i don't see the point in a total strip back, and it needs a cut n polish anyway as bottle brush flowers have mucked up the paint from being parked under a tree while its undrivable.

MattyZ Posted June 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 19, 2011 manual swap is comin along steady, weathers holding me back as its outside have to dodge the rain don't feel like crawlin round in the mud. Â trans is all unbolted and dropped. so now just need to take the flywheel/converter off and then bolt clutch on, gearbox, cable etc swap loom. Â tail shaft has been modified, because the manual came from a wagon the tail shaft was longer? so i used the manual front half and the auto rear half of the tail shaft.
