Cheers guys :)

Nice. Is that a vibratech g/box mount I spy? Looks like a neat job on the battery tray :cool:

Cheers, it's a floflex one, using one of their front mounts too, not the best quality but ok for the money.

Still a long way from start up, but engine is in :grin:

Engine and gearbox mated up; (Starter motor still to be painted)



All ready to be lifted in;



Bolted in (almost)





Can't wait to get it running now :)

Looking neat although it's a shame the two red  paints don't match.

Cheers for the comments :) Will get some better pics tomorrow, my camera is pretty poor (phone). Thai-wronghorse - check how much it is to get a colour match at your local powdercoaters and you'll understand why the reds don't match :wink:

Noice.

You don't own a Mk2, you support it.
