DGS 803X Restoration

Check with Dave H, he used to have lots of OEM lower ball joints but when he supplied mine I think he said he did not have many left. Worth asking tho.
I would also steer clear of the DMCH reproductions. Though might well be worth asking Ed's opinion, he might have another source?

Or you could visit D1, I just checked $287 each!!

Blimey!

...There again thinking on, ive never even looked at their website ....

Still for an important part I would pay that to be better safe than sorry...

Looks great Dan! Is it just the body left to put on?

Excellent pics too - makes you realise how high the engine is mounted relative to the frame. Not brilliant for the centre of gravity! Oh well...

[Jonny Jones]

Thats such an awesome effort Dan, its looking fantastic, easily added loads of money to the value of the car as a whole I recon!

[Barson]

Dan

was it you i was reading who got your brackets et al re-zinced? i can't remember where i read it. prolly the mag.

where did you get them done mate?



Dave.

[Dan6457]

I did get my bits done, but the ones you read in the mag were probably Julian's, he got Chris Parnham to do them. I used a local company for mine.

[A Van]

Looks great Dan I am sure Darren C will give those wheels the seal of approval!
