Went the 2.98 first gear kit from Burtons. Sorry there have been no posts lately, unfortunately my Grandfather has passed on and I am helping family with the estate.

So still no shed time unfortunately, every spare moment has been spent sorting out the Grandmothers house so she has a decent place to live. I'm not proud to admit it but I should have put my foot down years ago and stepped in to fix the place up, it shouldn't have taken my Grandfather passing for it to happen.
 
The good news is though after a mountain of work the place is actually livable now after almost a full interior renovation and she comes home from respite care next week!
 
On to exciting stuff now though, what could possibly be in this box?! Whoever guesses right gets a crisp high five!

 
Also managed to get down to the panel shop to see some progress, pick up the front suspension and drop something off that may or may not be related to that box. I snapped a few pics for my records and your enjoyment, he thinks it will be ready in Jan but I am hedging my bets that i'll get it sometime Feburary.

 

Yeah I thought he was being a bit too keen considering there is still a little bit of fab work and the whole underside of the car to clean up first before it goes to paint. 

It certainly is, there are two MK1 panel vans through that there engine bay actually, the one under the cover is the shop owners. There are another two MK1 two doors and a MK2 RS2000 XPack on the other side of the shop. He barely has room for his day to day work 

What's in the package game hey...
I think it's the extension housing for his gearbox so it prods out the same hole.. or a bead roller kit or both !

Cams, valves pulleys etc in the other ??
