buddys farm, his olds loved it, the old lady even jumped in another guys car for a ride haha.
na its a strong setup, only thing that let go was the tyres, didnt even come close to overheating thanks to the new radiator and 16" fan i just installed this week. gearbox hasnt let go yet, the old redline heavyshock oil really is like having a bulletproof vest on the gearbox, its pretty noisey but still going strong and shifting mint.

Apparently the redline stuff makes the gearboxes a little noisy compared with other oils - im using it in the y - i dont care about the noise if its managing to hold your beast together mine will never blow haha.

Nice. Overall is there much rust? I remember it being a fairly good shell. But as the saying goes rust never sleeps
