Lol..I suppose you're right, and to be honest with the amount of dents the car has already, I doubt I'd even notice any extra damage from rolling it
Yes I'll see you at Whaddon as soon as I've collected my new spare wheel. The guy lives in Stacey Bushes by the way. _________________ Alan

2" pipe is bigger than I thought. In my mind it was a very small diameter but looking at your cage it looks right and adequate.
That was a nice looking Vit and the cage looks superb. I like the way it covers all the corners and areas that may get damaged.
I'll probably invest in one of those pipe benders if I am to be building a custom cage. Then I can mess around making loads of other stuff too, like nudge bars, tube bumpers, and maybe even some of those damper hangers that you fabricated. _________________ Alan

A couple more pictures of Samurai as it changes.
I've tidied up the rear bumper and removed the knackered old lights and replaced them with some nice LandRover lights.
I'm fitting my 1600 Vitara engine at the weekend, so more pictures to follow

You've got to stop the pj's for a rest, I gotta find some pj's coz I'm so recuperated that I can't sleep at night anymore.
As for keeping up with you, it depends where you go matey. I aint mad enough to try & keep up if my spidey sense starts tingling _________________ Alan
