Ok so i bought this about 2 and half years ago now for £200 as an MOT failure as all there was a lot of rot on it, But 200 notes is still pretty dam cheap as far as discos go
I picked it up looking like this>>

Within about 2 hours later the angle grinder came out and the work began

Then came the not so fun bit............putting it back together

Due to 18 inches being cut off the back i could no longer use the OE fuel tank so i managed to source this tank for new with sender for £25

I then fitted a 2inch terrafirma lift kit

And a little bit of down pipe for deep water
![[Image: 20047_247002880916_570790916_4292871_1628995_n.jpg]](http://i1038.photobucket.com/albums/a468/167gti8/20047_247002880916_570790916_4292871_1628995_n.jpg)
I then went about getting everthing fitted back together properly and got some new tyres

When all was finished i took it out for the first time and entered a punch challenge and basically battered it

Since then i fitted some better wheels and tyres, 2" shock droppers, welded the diff (locked) battery relocation extended goodridge break lines and much more

It then got to the point where i was battering the thing so bad somthing needed to be done with the front end and sides, so i added side tree/rock sliders to side below the doors and last weekend i finished the front Extra Clarence/protection
