| Hi Dan,
Good to look around the car, its all in the details they say and yours has some very subtle details. I loved it!
I have left a Mk2 shift linkage alignment tool on your slam panel, if you already have one then can you keep it as a Nomads bank tool in case anyone else needs it.
I have another in case I get another Mk2.... ;-)

| Dan, you are an unlucky man. So another rebuild on the same box or a new box? Is it time for us to get a spare and learn the job ourselves? | |

| Please to hear that you noticed in time, with all the power, a flaw will be exposed with grinding metal.
Cant do us any harm to take a little look inside.... | |

| sorry to hear dan. they are a nightmare old cars, but its in us to build them bigger and better. i was without mine today, felt lost with it, but my cars gone wrong a few times before and ive learnt to except that sh*t. get on with it, and get to the point and fix it.
but what makes you such a G, is that you dont give up with it, your straight to it and fixing it again, keeping that ABF'd mk2 on the road!
if you need a hand, im around tomorrow, and sunday. if your stuck, or just need someone to make you tea im down.
hope it all works out and goes to plan blappa.

| Nor mine dude, luckly i've not really got the funds to attack the Rocco, cause i've got some wicked install ideas. Noticed the rear is a little higher than the front, but got weighty ideas for the rear | |

| Do it. As soon as it is fixed, it is like it was never broken in the first place. | |
