Thanks for the positive comment , it takes a lot of work ( 200+ hours in Max's Oval ). The engine was knackered , and needed a complete rebuild , the gearbox was not in straight , and looked as though it had been ' Bowled ' into the car , ha ha , so I straightened it all up , and put it back onto rubber mounts ( was solid ) , as Max intends a lot of street use . The tinware was also very tired , so new tin was fitted , it required a lot of modification , due to the width of the engine ( there was a half inch gap at the cylinder bases on the head tin alone ) . The rear piece I fabricated from scratch from 18 gauge steel . It all turned out great , you would never know so much cutting and shutting had been done , and the car drives great , no mechanical noise at all , due to the rubber mounts , and I've only taken it to 5000 rpm , on about an Inch of throttle ( needs some more miles on it ) ,and boy does it go , gunna be a ripper for sure .

all MOTd now folks. Big thanks to Pete for all the blood sweat and tears getting it back on the road.
drove lovely on the way back from the station,sounds like a stuka at idle,but a very civilised one !
bit of tuning and we will be well away. big up all the JG54 too.
oh and Ben the colour is an old Jag colour,the exact mix is a secret....codename Dark Lord
