So the same afternoon the gearbox was installed. I couldn’t help because I had to go to work but Tim came and have a hand installing it. Put some new oil in the gearbox but didn’t have enough to fill it so we will get some more tomorrow. So sorry but there are no photos for the installing because I wasn’t there and the rest forgot to take pictures! The gearbox went in with alot less crushing than it did the way out! Geoff made a kind of pulley system that was made from some wood that connected via the struts and a ratchet strap that wrapped around the gearbox, went up over the wooden brace and to an anchor point so it could be lifted easily and guided from underneath. Everything went in nicely and the clutch was aligned perfect the first go! After making sure everything was reconnected we tested out the gearbox by just moving the shifter and it is so good to finally be ably to put the car in a gear! So now its not long to go until we can finally get the car running and take it for its first drive!
