HR converted for floor shift and shortened.

 Ok, i thought that you need a collapsable column to use with R&P steering to pass engineering ?

If you haven't grown up by 50, you don't have to.

Nice colour. The tubs are neat - were they hard to fabricate and do you need to modify the rear seat?

Sexy,

Did you need to modify the boot floor and shorten the diff for the tubs?

What diff are you running, and what size wheels and tyres are you running up the back?

I'm seriously considering tubbing my FC, too.

Kind regards,

And, before I forget, how much did the tubs from McDonald Bros. set you back? On their site it states that the tubs are made to order - what are the diameters of yours?

Kind regards,
