doityourself Posted February 17, 2011 Report Share Posted February 17, 2011 Okay Luc Once again you've taken a daily and totally out done yourself. After seeing these pics I am definitely going to have to invite myself to the shed to see it in person, maybe I should scrap some cash and get the DISCO SHOEBOX laid with some new red.

greenmac80 Posted February 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted February 23, 2011 Ok so not alot has happened. Some changes are happening at the workshop so its setting things back a little. Got my wiring loom last week... So thats ready to go in. Have organised jono to install it all for me. Also extractors are all tacked together and the engine mounts have been redone. So now i have the small stuff to do to the engine. Progress will move along quickly now as i now have a bit less than 4 weeks to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
