I purchased it from ScratterDan over 2 years ago with 125,000 on the clock Pretty solid for its age, some rust spots on ...

Re: Driveshaft to hub

Cheers for the heads up, I'll keep my eyes peeled for one next time I'm at the Scrappers. I'm gonna have to strip it at some point and properly sort the back end out soon.

Driveshaft to hub

Hi I just bought Scratterdans 340 and managed to have a fun drive home, bar the 6 allen key bolts snapping that connect the rear driveshaft to the hub. I've managed to get three of the 6 out and replace with some M8 bolts I had lying around which should get me to the garage. They look like an M8 cap...

Re: Newbie- F77 OAP

Few more pics of the bonnet finished in satin black and the front end stripped to remove the headlight wipers and clean the bumper properly. The metal bar than runs behind the bumper is going to get a clean and a good dose of hammerite. Removed the chrome strip on the bumper. Going to start on the b...

Re: Newbie- F77 OAP

Going to get it running as my daily driver first, but i quite fancy the idea of stripping the interior and fitting a pair of bucket seats eventually.
Got the bonnet sanded and primered tonight, satin black going on tomorrow night.
