its good to see someone doing a conversion properly... getting the gearbox/brakes/diff sorted before the motor/turbo/fuel system is the way to go... well done, looks clean esp. the interior... what are your plans for turbo/ecu etc.? i did see you were toying with the idea of that written off VLCT... good luck with the rest of it anyway champ
