lol  would love to do it,
however swmbo would probably not !
he seems to know what he is doing though,most of it is pretty much thinking outside the box instead of just buying ready made parts,it could be on the road and running within a month if he could get a month free to do it,
was good to chat to you too Paul, DID he sort our sludgepump??

Hi Ot, your more than welcome,  in fact I should be thanking you :y hope all the bits are there?

Re the box. Briefly yes. It behaved after the top up for the test drive, but I hear it had lapsed Again. Hope now is a full atf service will sort it properly up at Sereks. :-\

It was indeed great to talk to you about The LC omega project, and the Mv8 project. Some good ideas there which is invaluable. :y

True.however,although i picked it because bodily it was sound underneath,I liked the outer scabs as it looked just like a well abused tired old repmobile in doom blue,complete with cloth interior, this post has got me thinking, wonder what condition its in now.? Know it lives outside.so it may be pretty rusty by now!
