good luck & keep up the great job ur doing of building this car.

Thanks Glenn i was going to get all the bits powder coated in titanium but money is a bit tight lately i have all the paint all ready so i thought i would paint a few bits so i can get the engine & box back in at last .
i just need to drop all my bolts& brackets down for zinc plating before i put it together .
