A Street Sleeper is reborn! THE END

[procta]

well we had a bit of a nightmare x2, we had two odd ball bolts keeping the rear subframe on the car, so we have had to drill and chisel them off, which took a lot of time today, we most have been on them for a good few hrs, but anyway we managed to get the old subframe off, and the remains disconnected.

then the fuel tank was dropped out,


while that was out, we fitted the new handbrake cable as it makes sense to change that, while the full works is off the car.
mind this handbrake was shot to hell!
then we swopped over a few pipes from the Carb tank to mine,
as I had a made up a few pipes, as the previous owner, of the gta, had removed them and not bothered supplying them with the car.
Now with us having the carb, I can swop my pipes I made up for proper metro ones, and even put in a proper over flow pipe too!
Then after that, we wrestled the tank into place, and bolted that up and I connected the tank electrics, just need to connect the fuel lines and that's the fuel system sorted practically!
next up came my braided hose kit! with the subframe off, we can fit the rear part of the kit!
Then its a case of sorting out the rear studs in the mounts and fitting the subframe back and sorting the rear brakes out.
we can then put the car back on 4 wheels!
maybe looking another week or so, as I am back to work as of Saturday, so at least the main things are installed now, just a case of time with the spanner!
I need to swop the metro hubs off the old blue subframe, as mine are f*cked, and then its bye bye to the red shell
