Thanks guys :)
Seat belts are now in. 2 new wheel cylinders to put on the front. (Just noticed a small leak)
Still need to figure out this small leak underneath then off for a wheel alignment then rego inspection :)

Wow man, this has been an awesome read, and I love all the pics....
It's truly amazing what you have done and a real credit to you.

I think the only trouble at rego will be the drool from the inspectors!

Congrats man and happy trails!



Wicked!
