well a quick update. Got towed out of the driveway. Drove forward in first and it was making a grinding sound like a bearing. Did it all he way to the garage louder as the car went faster. 1st to 5th the noise was still there even when i let it coast in nuetral was still grinding away. It sounded familiar as i had this sound when the thrust bearing went on my old pulsar years ago.

Gearbox/engine mount collapse? Driveshaft rubbing as a result?

Bit off topic Midnight T4 but... Looking at our two avtar pics your car looks a lot more 'custard powder' yellow than mine. Is it a panama yellow? I see you've colour coded the bumper inserts. Actually maybe not......:thumbs_up: [IMG][/IMG]

Yeah its panama yellow. The full bonnet and bumpers have been done not just colourcoding the strips I did the lot. It may just be the camera being used I took it on a 5MP Nokia N98 8GB with late evening light or the fact it was just out the bodyshop 2hrs before still covered in dust from bufing the paint. heres the two large pics of it painted and one from the scottish meet. I have no idea of the camera used at the meet but it looks more like yours.

LOL must be just the camera shot! Looks more like mine in the bigger pics. I was wondering about black or graphite wheels on mine...looks pretty good. May just get mine powder coated graphite TBH as I just shelled out on some new F1 Eagle GSD-3 rubber all round. Good luck with the gearbox!
