Re: The Black Pearl Build
Been working away on little things the last few weekends trying not to remove too much as it needs to be moved. Good new is, I havve found a garage nearby and have a recovery company moving it for me. It happens on 21st Feb so hopefully I can get on with the suspension the weekend after

Re: The Black Pearl Build
Been doing a lot of painting over the last few weeks.
Started to strip the front suspension now. Got stuck removing the lower ball joint and bush from the swing arm.
Before (will post an after once it's rebuilt)
Also, test fitted rev 6 lights.
Looking forward to building them up and fitting them fully

Re: The Black Pearl Build
Bit more painting
Drivers side coming along nicely.
Balljoint removed but need to take the arm to have the bush removed. once that's done, i can finish putting it back together and then start passenger side.

Re: The Black Pearl Build
Drivers side completed and MR2 now sitting on 4 wheels again.
Passenger side should take a little less time as i had to wait for parts to remove the old ball joint and find a way to remove the old swing arm bush.
Not perfect, but i intend to drive her in all weather so paint was just to smarten it up.
