If you want any of the bits Sam is chopping off - might be an idea to contact him!

He also built the lesser known Lockless - Engine was back a hell of a long way (ie almost not under the bonnet!), it ran his own ETC system with LSD's, dovetailed rear, 37's with Toy converted axles and thrashed!

The good news for you is an Oxy cutter wont cut aluminium.


The bad news is that a plasma cutter will go through it like it wasnt there. :twisted:

He's got it cut down at the moment installing Mogs.

Nah. LR should have made the front guards longer to get a better cut around the tyre. :p

[isuzurover]

Nah, you want the tyres forward of the guards so you can climb vertical walls without damaging the body ;)

[Slunnie]

Those guards will still get more cutting anyway.

[agrojnr]

Well you can't say the bloke does'nt have taste:D

Nothing beats a series 1 with a v8 in her:cool:

Adam

so are you in tuff truck this year or not?

[andrew e]

so are you in tuff truck this year or not?

no i wish i was. I estimate about another 8-10K of parts until tuff truck.:mad:

but then i will have about 5-600hp and an unbreakable driveline.

I wish i could fab as quick as sam though. What takes him an hour takes me a day.

Does this start with LS and end in Hi9?

[andrew e]

no, hopefully with my snail, lots of headwork and a bit of laughing gas the rover motor will stay. ls1 is too big in size for how i want it set up. 9" is somthing that i am looking very closely at.

Nice. I forgot about the snail. 9" as in 9"Mogs - you're not dropping the mogs are you?

Sounds like a woman's privilege and it does normally cost more:eek:
