STU_3LTR_TT Posted January 14, 2010 Author Share Posted January 14, 2010 All that dust dont look good in and around that engine, it needs sealing up mate, everything is open and that's bad. Going to strip the engine bare,and start again with it, make sure it's clean of all the dust before it goes back in,will leave the engine out until all the bodywork is done this time,going to spend some time in the bay filling all unwanted holes/remove brackets,should of been done before it went into red,but got forgotten,so at least it will be as i wanted it this time.

hodge Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 You've made a good choice with the black paint mate. Get some chrome in that engine bay when it goes in. Great project mate, looking well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
