Massive kudos to you, Glen!
I love your motor too.
The yellow pulley is so funky and agricultural.

Cheers guys, yep getting close. Jamie from kustom kombi has been helping me out a bit which has been invaluable.

Andy, you've been a big fan of the yellow pulley since day 1 now I've seen it in action It will never be replaced.
Very agricultural

D train, its fair to say I was closer to wood than goosebumps

Thanks boys, its been 2 1/2 years in the making and now I can drive it, it's amazing how quick I'm knocking over the small jobs that I could have done 12 months ago.

Took it for a longer drive this afternoon all is going well and reached a sound barrier shattering top speed of 45mph, more importantly the gear box holds nicely in 4 th gear.

You're worried about it popping out of 4th gear? Don't stress, Glen. That's what occy straps are for.
