Yes, a secondary tank can be fitted, if you can find one...

Gareth, we sprayed it on. Goes on well, but being wet, it's very easy to miss bits. Looks the same as the galv Whistle My D3 Build Thread

Galv In One, from Buzzweld

Usually, when painting a galv chassis, you need to prep the chassis with either etch primer or T Wash. This is direct to galv paint, with no prep, other than a quick pressure wash Thumbs Up My D3 Build Thread

Because V8 brakes are "so" last year...





5.0 S/C rear brakes Whistle

Original rear discs were 325mm, V8 brakes are 350mm, these take it up to 365mm

And the original front discs started out at 317mm, then upgraded to 360mm, and now 380mm

And a new master cylinder, it will stop better than it goes Laughing My D3 Build Thread

Certainly has progressed somewhat since I last saw it on Friday. Once you have defeated the idiots any job is half done. Pity there are so many idiots to defeat.
