Keep up the good work, I love reading and seeing projects that I would never consider tackling myself, maybe someday when I have more time on my hands.

Gee I better do some work ... actually I am plaining to this weekend. Unfortunately it might not be as much as it should be, unless I can get hold of some thicker steel for the anti-roll bar mounts. I've forgetten to think ahead and order some ... oops  .

More progress ...
... yep I was lucky and managed to get hold of some 'correct' thickness steel, and thus have made the passenger side anti-roll bar mount repair piece. Note I have not drilled the mounting holes yet.
Repair piece is just sitting in the right place ... not welded yet.

Sorry guys I've been making a welding trolley thingy and not working on the car ... ofcourse the trolley thingy is taking longer than it should, but hopefully will be really useful once finished.
Sometimes it's good to work on something else too ...
Pete

Okay my welding gear trolley is complete ... love to show you a picture but my camera and computer are having a tiff  .
I also won't be posting as much as I used to as now difficult at work  .
If I can get my camera and computer to talk to each other again I will definitely keep posting updates ... and will have a look around some weekends on the site.
Keep up the great work guys and girls.
Pete
