Looks great when all the bits going back on are new, clean and occasionally shiney. Good job on the spraying. Engine looks sweet too, love it.

Thanks mate, yeah it's around 80% done, waiting on bits coming and I can crack on again.

It'll be next year when it's running, big money parts to buy next and I'm going on holiday next month.

Pm'd about the stickers
