Crossflow swap may be put on the back burner for the time being, deadline for getting it on the road is around March 2013, it's gotta be at wheels day in Aldershot hehe!
Anyway, that means the axle will be staying in place for the time being with tidying up the car being the priority. Started brushing in some jenolite rust remover which seems to work quite well. Sourcing shock absorbers is next, will probably just go with some Viva GT or Magnum ones to deal with the inch drop when the springs get to me. I also need to replace track rod ends as their boots are shot. We've also got a crashed Honda Civic here with a real nice black leather interior which looks like it might go into the viva. The seats don't tip unfortunately as they're from a 4 door, but I don't ever really have anyone in the back so this shouldn't be much of a problem!
