Well, the plan is to still use the solid link. It will however be a rather tricky bit of engineering and I'm not even sure that it will work. If not, I will end up having to somehow convert the gearbox to a cable-shift setup, and go that route... Rightr now I'm busy with the Tub and fenders, will get to the gearshift as soon as I have the tub in.

Those are really nice batteries, dry-cell, right.... will probably end up going for one of them yes...

IT's a fully homologated, roadworthy car......... or at least it will be, when I'm done. Intended for normal everyday, to work and back driving, and then some..... of coarse over weekends' it's another story.

Sorry for not posting much pictures lately.... the progress is going strong, but it's on the small nitty gritty things, that don't really look like much progress... However, here is some shot's of the mud-flap.

OP, lets see all the nitty gritty stuff. The cool stuff is in the details.
