Nice work, I have thought about doing the mx5 engine swap myself, have seen a couple done. would definitely go better than the stock engine and EFI would be good. 

I had the same issue with the steering link with the built in ball joint, I had the guys at SAS in Nelson send it away to be done.

It’s surprising how many of these old Utes are still being driven around in Central Otago. Apparently the Cockies loved them as the low gearing coupled with some knobbly tires on the back meant they went anywhere.

I like the wheels and think the red and silver pairing will look good with the White.

Cheers, yeah, my old man got it off a farmer in Gore apparently back in 91.
