Wow, yeah, the thread really did go quiet; sorry about that everyone!
 Thanks for all the good comments guys, I really appreciate it.As Brad said, I went on a couple of overseas holidays this year between June and October, so progress slowed right down for them. The project is still 100% going. We are currently having a few issues slowing us down; but nothing we can't resolve. Anyway, everyone loves photos - I appologise for them being phone photos, but you get what you're given! Ha ha    And ahh... Hola!!  And this is just because I can:

Great work on the car too, BTW - was never keen on the AU XR fronts, but I'm coming around.

I now live in Bunbury in WA; the car is still in Townsville with Tickford_6 who is still working on it for me. Scope hasn't changed - still going to be the same as described in this thread. We've been in discussion and reckon it will be done by Christmas time. |

Yeah, I'm pretty sure he was butting heads with a few of the more senior people on here, ha ha.
That's between him and them though, not me.
