Oh no, that's annoying. Auto Doc have a habit of selling me lhd parts that don't fit. Could it be that they have sold you a rhd part?

Got the shift linkage joint from tractor dave the other day (thanks again!). But i am gonna hafta take it apart and transfer the guts in the end. The keyway in the joint that bolts to the trans is in the wrong spot. Shouldn't be too be a huge task....

The misc 5x112 stuff i have kicking around barely fits. The odd rear wheel rubs on the strut. I have all my spacers in so it's as good as it can be for now.... i hafta get the winter rollers off the racecar when it's warmer and i should have a much easier time rolling it around.

Will get the steering back in it tomorrow hopefully so i can get it outside and get the dust off of it. In a cold spell at the minute but when that's over, may start pulling panels off the cabby in order to complete the body on this and have a complete idea where i need to go with it.

Made them from generic bits from

Bout $125 in parts for the pair.....shipping and duties of course bent me over in due time.

I have concerns about there longevity due to the elements but given i can't find oe replacements.... are there sources for them that i missed?

Did you make the the link rods for the rear or are they off the shelf items?

Thanks!
