Rain rain rain, got a little more done today before it started but lost the garage key somehow 
:mad2: don't understand how I managed to lose it on a 20 foot walk between the car and the garage but I have done

Started on the chassis today, cutting and welding
All looking good so far and should hopefully be done in 2 weeks max welding wise as my mate (in pics) can only weld on his days off
And heres a short vid of the exhaust on tractor stacks (no silencer yet but will have a single cherry bomb on it soon and double stacks instead of single)

Thanks mate, will do
I'll probs be fabricating a few small items for mine in time so it'll help pay for itself, only other things I'm getting made for me at a proper fabricating shop is a proper big ass bullbar (more or less a battering ram) and a roll bar for the top

Well today we continued on the welding and grinding, we're hoping to have the chassis finished by next week and then have the top of the bulkhead and footwells finished by the week after as well as the new custom exhaust
Its not much really but the welding can only occur when he's around as I suck at it
Anyway heres some pics from today

Haha no just an angle grinder spark in my eye so I've had it checked for metal fragments and cuts
It's just a burn on the upper lid so I've got drops and antibiotics now
4 times a bloody day for the next week

Thanks guys I appreciate it
Also been out today and got all my oils and underseal for the 109 apart from brake fluid
But most importantly some sealed vent goggles so this never happens again

Bollocks, just realised I forgot to change the oil filter
Will the oil be alright if I drain it again tomorrow and put the new filter in or am I better off just leaving the old one in now that I've ****ed it up?
