Hi cliff how's things going m8.

Don't know what engine I am putting in yet, will depend on the money at the time. It will more than likely be a pinto for now on 45's. I would love to run a cossie lump on 45's but money is short at the moment.

Cheers


Garry

finally got round to spraying it today, all it needs now is a little bit flattening here and there and a mop, and then a good coat of wax. It looks a lot redder in the flesh, I am really chuffed with the outcome, I have never sprayed a car before in my life, this is the first time I have ever held a spray gun!!

Fantastic effort for your first time.

Infact, it'd be a fantastic effort if you were a seasoned pro!
