General info really, I assume you had to make the front mounts for the gear box - same style as you would on a beetle, how did you deal with mounting the engine end of the gear box as early bay's don't have frame horns.

Were there many parts you had to make?

Also what sort of level would you place this at in terms of difficulty?

Regards

Ollie

ps any photos of the process?!
