Nice Mate - enjoying the progress.:D
Very nice! I can see you've put a lot of work into it and a lot more to do yet. Looks like ford blue on the 2.25:D Did my 2.25 S111 the same.
Cheers Tony

Last night I finished putting in the pedal boxes, and furnished them with new master cylinders. I reused the old brake lines as they were in good nick and were only replaced in 2000. New wheel cylinders on 3 wheels, 4th to go on tonight.
Tried to replace shoes but the retaining bolts would not thread into the newies and the nuts supplied with them were completely wrong as well! (Bearmach...) I ended up leaving the old ones on but they are quite good anyway. I would surmise that the are the entire braking system was overhauled in the not too distant past. I distinctly remember rolling it off the trailer after collecting it from Singleton and finding that the brakes worked VERY well indeed. (I almost rolled backwards into the side of the house... :angel:)
I twisted the clutch reservoir supply hose so I will have to replace that. :(
Brian from LVS has found some Parabolic compatible shockies for me so I will put my rear Paras on tonight. (I hope the bushes don't give me trouble... :( )
Need to get my radiator support panel ready to go in too, and put in the headlights so Bill and I can attack the rewire sometime soon.
still alive working hard havent a moment to chat gus is almost ready for rego his body is all on sans front guards bill is giving me a hand with the wiring today and mark and i will sort the brakes and then it will almost be ready for rego on thursday after i get my shockies in the mail and put them on and i still dont have a roof ready so i hope it doesnt rain also my alternator wont fit and i dont have time to make a bracket so i'll just have to use a genesaurus as a jockey pulley and not drive at night until I get the alternator fitted up and im seriously broke because I have poured a **** load of money into gus and because im an idiot and recently have less sleep than money i decided in my infinite wisdom to buy another landy but i will leave you hanging on that one because i havent got time to introduce it properly yes im a bastard anyway i had better go and make myself another c-c-coffee and get off here because I sound like a member of a toyota forum. :eek:
Great work Andrew and your helpers!
I see you are so busy you haven't updated Gus in your signature;)

Shonky,
If you are trying to fit a Lucas 16ACR onwards alternator you may need to use the bracket shown in the attached file. I just did this to my 2a and it fits like a glove. Got one from LRSeries in the uk. Not cheap but made for the job.
