Managed to secure the initial donor parts for the build over the weekend. A short trip up the M6 across to Accrington and £200 later I have acquired:
- 3.92 differential
- Slot in drive shafts
- Steering column
- Intermediate Shaft to inner Column
Also included were the rear drum brakes and prop shaft which are not likely to be used so hopefully I can move these on at a later date.
items came off a 1991 Sierra and whilst collecting the parts could not help but notice the seller had a lovely Haynes Roadster so we ended up having a good chat about kit cars!
So some cleaning up, hammerite painting and general prep work to do prior to installation but pleased to have secured these parts.
Spare bit of time to it so thought better turn attention to getting van booked.
Still plenty of time before the collection date but don't want to forget to rent a van and come collection time I am scrambling around looking for a suitable van to rent.
Enterprise rent a car to the rescue with a good rate of £65 for an extra large van which as I am collecting on a weekend allows for a drop off Saturday or Sunday so no need for it to be booked all weekend and it sat idle.
