Humm you are boring me Brian with your negative rants :roll: I've been building modified cars for a while now and have quite a fair understanding of tolerances!
Nah didn't get the diff but it was only a spare for my other rebuilt spare! But may as well put the Hauser Racing Capri 2.8 axle/LSD on for now aye!
Ta Tar!

Don't you mean being a donkeyman? Labourer? Dilutey? :roll:
Can't wait to see it running, see what investing 4 grand plus, in a Marina turns out like

But don't forget £472 worth of chips will blunt SLK's performance somewhat :roll:
He He He
P.S. do they charge 1p for salt down your way?

Brian,
just for you,a picture of a completely standard as it came out of the factory in all its glory(!)unmodified Marina......
As for modified Marinas,why post negative all the time,your beloved standard cars are so far away from perfect,I know I have one.....get over it.
The result of wasting £5000 + on a marina

Every nut, bolt, washer, seal, infact everything that was available to buy new from the dealers at the time of building........
... and what was the resultant comment " It looks like a hearse"
Broad shoulders are required, just don't take yourself seriously
Have fun, that's ALL that really matters 8)
