Or sneak in a tad later split case for the time being. So you have synchros on 2nd/3rd/4th. For now. Alot nicer to drive.
Piece together the grinder and put it back in later. :wink:

nice progress as always Andre. I've got a later split case center section that's in good shape. You'd need to sort out axles tubes, RGBs etc. If you need it let me know....

GOOD MAN! No updating, drive it like the out of control dinosaur it is! I'd love to have a Barndoor early enough that it has a full crash trans.
