As you can see - camber needed.
Amazing build, mate.

How have you moved the rear beam? Mines is currently like your before photo, and it's annoying me like he'll, haha

I made a custom Panhard bar to keep everything central and eliminate any side to side movement.

Not tested on the road yet to see if everything works or pushes over too far when loaded up. If I have it right it should only be a few mm of movement.

Couple of the colour… 2021 Porsche Oak Green - went for this over the classic oak, as it has a lot more pearl / life in the paint.

Just read this build thread again from when I last commented. The quality of parts fitted and workmanship on this is top notch mate. You must’ve spent an absolute fortune!
As with Docs conversion, that engine looks like it was fitted in the factory.
