Hey guys,

So it's that time of the decade, rebuild time! It's been almost exactly 10 years since I build the 1330. What a glorious decade it has been, fun times. It's now time to redo the engine and do a mini restoration of Lillee herself (needs abit of TLC in some parts)

I was tossing up whether to do a rebuild thread or not bother. Had fun last time blogging it but that was 10 years ago! Just want to know what everyone else thinks?

The plan is to rebuild it at GR's like I did last time cause you know, he isn't already busy.

The original rebuild thread: viewtopic.php?f=5&t=21438

I am doing my first so would love to hear what happens after 10 years and how you go about it and if you would do anything differently 2nd time around, so please, it's a YES for me.
