need to raise the front a touch as steering box is to close to the floor, off to get all new brake pipes soon and then start preping the body for paint, slow progress but heading in the right direction :-)

I would deffo invest in a boatyard steering box guard dude. Mine has taken a fair few smacks over the years and it hasn't bent it up. Looks nice and clean underneath, nice job you're doing.

Shalom, Lee.
