    Bring me your shop, its too cold down there for turtles.

    I wish I had a shop I could take it too, so hard finding somewhere, thats not going to cost me an arm and a leg.

    Ok so shit sort of hit the fan, primarily having the majority of my tools stolen. Obviously this fucked me over royally not only woth the build but in my work as well. A mechanic is only as good as his tools, a mechanic without tools is as usefull as a bucket of dicks in a nunnery.

    But today has been an awesome day. Not only did i secure a date with a girl i have had thing.for, for a loooong time but, a couple old mates have come to my rescue. For get the damsel in distress, it was a case of dickhead in distress. But steve aka lowie has given me space in his warehouse, and gil, being the sick #### that he is has offered.me his mig, a big thank you to both of those guys. So hopefully over the next week, Ill wake up to myself and have the ball rolling again.

    The list of to do's before beau small can work his magic on the cage.

    Finish rails
    Weld in floor
    Finish fitting subframe
    refit engine and.box
    build the tunnel.

    Once i knock that shit out it can go off for the cage providing i can get the funds together ( i fucking suck when it comes to money lol)

    Also a big thumbs up to chris aka shiftrook of shockworks, although he probably doesnt know it his offer of support is what has pushed me to get back on the bike and start trying to build this heap again. So thanks chris, youre a fucking champion and all these guys should get behind you and youre old man and.make SHOCKWORKS a house hold name.

    So let the safari begin, gunner, the big game hunter is back, look out superlap im comin.

    Sucks to hear about your tools going man... Hope the grubs that took them get caught.

    And hurry the fuck up and get this running, Toyota will have ft86 stock soon and hopefully i'll have one.

    Thanks Matt, it was a bit of a heart breaker to find nearly a decades worth of tool collecting was gone, more so when i set about replacing it all, didnt realise how much I had spent over the years. But thats life in the South west, theres always some slimey prick who wants your shit more than you do.

    It wont be running for a while, probably not till next yr, but I am.determined to have it parked next to a new 86 at wtac as a display. The hard part will be getting it down my drive way with no steering or brakes, its going to be interesting lol.

    On the bright side it means you can buy all new toys!

    Thats really off, hopefully they'll be clueless and will get caught.

    Steering a brakes are over rated...

    Oh Gunner you make me blush, if time permits when it comes to putting the shocks in it might even be worth me coming up to help with the install. Would be great to help
