Speed-on stock an M10-1/8NPTF adaptor for a few euros so I'll give that a try assuming I can actually buy one from them, if not I'll lop the end off and fit one to the hose at a later date.

After getting expensive quotes from breakeryard.com I relented and bought a diff from ebay. I also need to get some track rod ends, probably from ebay too.
Just waiting on Chris confirming the costs for the Tank, Powdercoating and uprights, and of course a delivery date.
The next logical thing to get will be the Shock absorbers, Nitrons are going to be expensive though sadly, I will then find myself some build wheels and I'll have a car that can roll, stop, turn and spray fuel into the engine bay.
After that its the reverse box and drivetrain.
