Managed to get some time to do a bit more. James has been busy while I haven't been there. Hoping to get a full day on it this weekend and get the brakes connected up, paint the chassis and maybe some welding on the body as it has more holes than expected

I can't take all the credit Mike. James has done quite alot of the work with me moving house etc. Sometimes it's too easy to just let him crack on. Was having a good look at yours, that will be one naughty motor when James has finished.

So between me and James we have something starting to resemble an sj again.
Had to convert the front brakes from non vented to vented thanks to a seized caliper, non venteid calipers are very hard to get hold of.

Not many pics from today but I managed to get through quite abit. power steering finished off, rerouted all water pipes, mounted intercooler and piped up with some hoses I had kicking about (will buy new eventually), battery mount sorted.
Still a way to go but waiting on materials to finish the back. Won't be long till I can bring it home and finish it off in garage.
