(i'll upload pics later)
I got a shell given too me by a mate. He assured me it wouldnt be repairable. But me, martin and ian managed to weld it all up in a week.
Then the old dailly made its last journey. The 3door shell had nothing so we had to take it all out of the old car. 9hours and it was all plugged in. turned over but wouldnt start.
Next morning went back out to it. Looked at the wiring and played about abit and it fired up.
The next week consisted of me playin with wiring til everything worked. It then say for 2weeks and went for mot. Failed on rear brake pipe and brake pedal dropping under pressure. Not a problem, took itback with a new brake pipe and went through. Theres alot more to this 3week build but al put that on with pictures. Cos we all love pictures. :)
