also i got a prop shaft to fit my gear box the only problem is i have to make it fit the driveshaft in the pic i think i will probably cut both shafts off and then get a welder to weld the sierra shaft on

the pile of bare metal bits grows ive inly got one leaf spring to do now then i will paint all the bits up i also slid underneath the car and scraped/wirebrushed the shit out of it for a good hour needless to say it was a mean workout it got all the looser shit off but the real dry hard crusty shit wasnt budging so i decided to leave it lol then i sprayed it hard out with rust proof and ill let it dry overnight and most probably paint it in chassis black paint tomorro
