Just great to see a local company doing well, speaks for itself the great reputation apt has.
Good luck and let me know if you want the truck to test the rollers when re-installed ;-)

Today saw a slightly earlier start and another busy day
First job was to get the rest of the roof trusses off

Then Kev and Mick started marking and cutting the floor out. Here the guys are all looking at the size of Kev's gut as the Atkins diet really ain't working for him

I tried my own version of the ying-yang sign on the dyno's rear wall

Easily degreased with Bilt-Hamber products

This presented the perfect opportunity to clean the dyno before re-installation, so it was hauled outside for more space

A 50/50 showing some progress

Grot and grime after thousands of bhp and loads and loads of cars
