It looks like a good start....
I know there are disc brake conversion kits on Ratsun somewhere ........ maybe PM "Beebani" ...... or "Mklotz" for the 320 stuff
I tried to link those pics to your thread on Ratsun...... .. but I think you need to use a image hosting site... .. you can only upload 3 or 4 pics on Ratsun

Hah Merlin, I'm still trying to make some room over here! Funny, I talked to the seller about that one, he didn't want to haul it down from the interior unless he had too ! So, what are the other 2 then?

Re: Merlin's new 521- trying to catch up to Jason.
Jason ... thats why you need a car hauler! super nice guy to deal with... the truck is straight and rust free where it matters... and it runs and drives, but the tranny feels like stirring cold corn syrup.

Put on your toque and hitch hike up the Coquhalla and drive it back, Jason. Throw a few bananas in the tranny, hell it's all down hill from there.

C'mon Merlin, I need a car hauler to get more cars like I need a hole in the head ! I'm trying to cut down, not build up here man! Nice scores though, I'm glad I'm exercising some self restraint here !
