Potta's mini truck

[Potta9]

Good weekend of progress got the motor, wiring , gearbox and linkages out of the vp and slotted it in the ute. With the money I've made off the vp when it goes to it's new home tomorrow I'll be ordering the 4 link and chassis notch kit this week. Also decided wheel wise the 6 stud is useless for choice so going to whack the spare vl turbo diff in it that's in the shed.

Sorry for the crappy pics too guys. I was covered in crap and it was dark.

Cheers Luke

Turbo it :thumbsup: thatll get it moving

Wouldn't mind a turbo but already building a car with one of those so I'll give the charger a crack. The truck is basically the opposite of how I usually do everything. V6, auto , built to cruise (not fast round corners).
I'm loving it , I can do whatever I want and I plan to

Got rid of the vp last night so it's full steam ahead on the truck now. Cutting the front tubs out this week to fab up bigger ones and ordered the notch /4 link kit thismorning.

What did you do engine mount wise ? Got any pictures ?

Mounts were exactly the same. I just moved them back on the chassis by 70mm. Will take some pics when I go work on it next.
