    so enough of the practicing, onto the build:



    Disco body now all cut up and painted in POR15's Raptor Ute liner




    While I was at it I gave the chassis a good degrease and a couple of coats of chassis black:



    The back of the D1 chassis was adapted to fit the larger D2 fuel tank - just the mounts as the chassis is similar spacing!



    Then the BIG change, I changed my mind on what to power the beast as a low km Disco 2 Td5 with ZF Auto became available so the engine mounts were cut off and some Disco Td5 ones added:



    then along came the realisation of the wiring!!!
