How about drilling the mk 6 drums and hubs (in the gaps) to take mk 5 studs. Then all the wheel nuts will be the same.

We did have some alloys, but only 4 of them. Buying 2 others would have cost a lot more than the 6 wellers and tyres so they were sold

I will bring the sheet steel for the floor, so that is sorted.
Is there anything else you lads can think of that will help, a few of you have been to my place and know the sort of 'crap' there is laying about, happy to bring anything that will help, even tools as required. pm me if you think of anything guys, we don't want to be pulling our hair out when we should be working :lol:
See you all Friday
