    Love the wheels, reminds me of the RS alloys I had on my xr4x4.
    Fingers crossed for test.

    I wasn’t a fan until I saw them on mine to get it onto the trailer.

    I FOUND MY REAR WHEEL BEARINGS, WOOOOO

    And my motivation for dad. It’s now MOT ready. He’s well excited, bless him! It’s also blisteringly fast and it’s not even on a full map.. so I’m kinda scared for mine!!

    A big piece of the puzzle, the wizard @rubjonny worked his magic and we’ve now got a fully checked car loom, one touch windows and a 20v conversion all done.

    Hopefully tomorrow, get everything underneath back on, then get the wiring in, which means dash can go in, carpets can be cut up and put in, temp engine back in.

    Hopfully a big weekend
