After a long time of working for my boss it's vacation. I've started with the bodywork of my xr4x4. I've got another engine waiting for the car. 24v with bob cams and bob inlet.(superchargers are my winter project). New bumpers and sideskirts, 4x4 hood etc etc. i've bought so much spares that i haven't any space left in the garage.  

Like always the problem is that you see a little bit of rust and after a few minutes it's a big hole.
But my friend is gonna help me out.  I hope that i can keep up the speed of repairing that the car is running again in autum or winter.

regards, william

the last weeks i 've been busy with the rear end of the xr4x4. i've cleaned the whole rearbeam and painted it. there was only one hole in the chassis and that was under the petrol tank. Put a new piece of metal in it.  this week i'm gonna assemble the complete rear beam and remount it. I've got new poly bushes for the rear. some pictures how it was and now is.
