Roped a friend(Daz) in to sort out some bay bling,i got a hold of my mate who said it would help if i could prep the stuff up for him coming back off the boat
manifold had a lot of cast lines and mould marks(cellulite looing wrinkles on surface)and some pitting.
started on 80 grit as it was pretty heavy and took down all the cast lines

the car got flattened and polished and took back out the booth then back into position to start the rebuild , and build the engine.
now first off was to start by putting the steering column and servo back in
then the full car loom had to be put back in as i removed this for painting.
removed the tape so i could re tape and remove any wiring thats not getting used and make it alitte neater
part of the dash and wiring back in
one of my fav new bits hahahah and new master cylinder and res bottle and cap with float
nice new competition engine mounts
made a start at the brake pipes etc before the engine goes into place
