Teaser pics.
It is "Finished " in the sense that it is on the ground with an AWD drive train and an ST205 engine installed.
Once the gas tank and other stuff is installed, it wil be a runner I am Sure.

Stock gas tank to go in.


ST205 engine in.


RHD Interior


Pass side of the Rear frame


Front of the driver's side rear frame, mounted.


More pics later ? Rather hard right Now with the car on the ground.
If I put on some ragged clothes and get down and dirty...

Best of luck to completion.

I don't have any way to draw on the pic itself but it should be really obvious from this pic which type of weld I'm talking about. The one to the left of the red bit there is really really bad. It appears you may have forgot to open your gas valve due to the cavities visible even in these pics. Also it appears that it was not burned in very well but I can't really tell from here. You'd be surprised the difference between the forces exerted on those welds now vs what they will be when the car is on the road. If it were me I'd be making it as strong as possible and screw the weight [You've already added tons of that so make it right IMO].
Not coming down on your work at all - just trying to make sure you and the car stay as safe as possible.

BTW - You have excellent taste in tires

from the pic, do you have enough clearance, it does not look like it, you barely make that 4 by 4. Seems like the axles are pointing downward instead of upward. I am no expert, but maybe thats ok. I was just pointing out. Make sure you weld it right. but in any ways, great job done
