Thanks Mate hope it turns out better than crashed state haha, but with a few little personal changes that can always be reversed at a later date if need be.

Yes Tim found it not sure where or how he this this way with finding things its very uncanny


So i did some powder coating for FUN
i like the idea of bright Orange White and Black... for Now haha
so I'm going to get stuck into it and have some fun.
I won't do the big engine rebuild and head work for a while as i probably need to just get it going standard and then i can at least drive it and take my time to compile a decent list of parts act and start getting things together slowly.

I do have some black prothane bushings on the way. they have the same hardness as red.
I'm really hoping they turn up early this week


Orange, Bright, Fun


im hopping it looks "dubin" traveling down the road with just this orange sunroof piece and some orange bbs showing,
it will also help me feel fast and nimble lol

[mikinoz]

You clown.

[gldgti]

bahaha orange - I love it for the undercarriage... not sure about the sunroof though

That front looks magic!

[Dub Toffee]

Yea good thing is you can always spray it black at any time
but Its growing on me i got to admit
don't think i will use bbs now I'm going to stay with the original Pirelli.
Bolting on is fun stuff and black spray paint is my friend
one day one day i will get a zinc chroming kit lol
