prado is now certed , with some photos

Post by sig »

finally got around to going for cert on the prado last night . :D came home with a list :( .nothing to major just lots of small stuff ie more clips on the brake line ,blank off the old clutch master cylinder hole ,extend bump stops on the back,cover front chassis ends etc etc .all in all nothing major .almost passed the brake test .On the last stop they got a bit hot and went outside the time.will spend sunday doing all the little bits and pieces and then next week it will be legal ( hopefully ) :DImageImageImageImageImageImageImage

wondered why that 40 looked like it was working so hard on a relatively easy piece of track, then I saw the 2.5 ton boat anchor it was hooked to and it all made sense. :lol:

Yeah, how about some more pics/specs of said Prado.
