Ok so I've not really got much done in the last few weeks, was hoping all the rear end would be completed by now, truth is I've hardly started to put it back together..
Had a spare half hour today so got the rusty brake pipe replaced, hoping to get the refurbed filler neck and subframe back on tomorrow

Started to bolt the powder coated sub frame back on, all the underside has been cleaned, some small patches of surface rust stripped back treated and painted and then all covered with white stonechip, really pleased with the finish



The diff has been cleaned and painted also.



Will see what else I can get done this afternoon

Made a bit more progress this weekend

Cleaned the driveshafts up and painted them, quite pleased with the look now


Fitted them along with the link arms, diff etc






Coming along nicely now. Will get the trailing arms put on this afternoon. Hoping to get some uprated anti roll bars to go on while I'm at it

The old red and black combo - like a tarts underwear - but looks the dogs danglies. Not sure I'd be happy with a white underside though. Whilst it looks mint I'd get fed up of keeping it clean, white wheels are bad enough

Haha yeah I couldn't resist the red black combo

Yeah I know it's going to be hard to keep clean, but as its only a sunny weekend car it shouldn't get to bad along as I pressure wash it off regularly
