Already got my ticket for Sunday, look out for the Trophy in the car park ;)

I have a few more pics to upload so I'll get this updated tomorrow. Its great seeing the appreciation from everyone as I keep thinking I should have just bought a well looked after 182, don't get the same satisfaction out of it though (I dont think my bank account agrees)

Like Amos said, you can just use a screwdriver in the slots sideways, I personally just used a set of mole grips and pushed against it as I wound it in.

Thanks George, I was really pleased at how quickly they arrived Yeah the little spacers were already there, I just cleaned them up and just popped them back on. :)

Thanks bud, Ill maybe just buy a second hand box and get it returned. In the meantime I'll get that linkage sorted

Yes It's only in second gear it does it, forgot to mention also that it occasionally pops out of 2nd too. It was up on the ramp the other day so I had a look at some stuff while it was up; the dog bone mount seems solid and the engine mount at the top on drivers side seems good. There is a lot...

So I've been driving my 182 for little under a week now, but today I noticed something. When I pull hard in 2nd gear, as soon as the car reaches the around 5k revs the car starts to shudder from the front and it comes right up through the steering wheel, there is also a loud noise as if I had...

So I proceeded with front right corner of the car with the hope that it would come off easier but expecting it to be just as bad... so it wasn't actually as bad as the other side.....it was waaaay worse :weary::weary: I began by doing the same with this side as i did with the left side, but...

Well onto the fronts now. Prior to starting on the brakes I thought I would have more trouble with the back due to there being a bearing involved (hence why I started off with the rears), turned out that the rears were pretty easy as the disc basically fell off waiting for the new one to be put...

Post up the pics of the front tomorrow as there is a lot to go through haha

Discs and pads changed over on the passengers side, now onto drivers side. not being shy with the copper slip haha

So I made some progress finally with the Trophy. This week I ordered up some new brakes for the car through George at RoadTrackRace.com and a quick trip to Autoparts, as it will be going for an MOT this coming week and the old ones were in horrific condition. So Friday came and the new Discs...

The last owner decided that he would make more money by stripping the Turini's and Sachs, then selling them separately.

Some pics from when I bought the car

Project Trophy #075 I bought this little Trophy a few weeks ago so I thought it appropriate to start a build thread for it, as I will be doing a lot of work to the car to get the car back to original with some tweaks along the way.

dont worry guys, the little car has been rescued and is now in the safe hands of someone who appreciates it
