Well the rear arches have been modified to eradicate the overhang and some gaz adjustabes (shortened for lowered vehicles) ... apart from working out how to get the f**king gaitor back on the knuckle joint that is....

The front is a different matter: you can save ££££'s by buying a set of lowered front shockabsorber mountings with the pivit shaft about 15mm higher up .... unless you have front brace bars and and expansion tank bang where the top of the shockers will be..... after the inner wing got welded up where the surface rust extended into full depth rot!

Now as the front shockers on the car are well shafted generic standard shock absorbers without adjusters so the rear GAZ will be joined with a set in front
Now the front arches will need opening up (hello mr tin snips) then

The bottom of the car will need a bit of work to add skid plates to the leading edges of the exhaust boxes and possibly an extension of the sump guard back to somewhere

Any how, no fires, no holes, no tears.... MOT friday - just need to spin up the front discs to get rid of the surface rust
