You're showing us all up mate, painted fuel lines...
Mine's gonna be lucky to get paint on the shell!

But seriously, it's lookin awesome there Hallsey, keep it up.
Can't wait to see (and hear) yours running.

Well the motor went in for the last time today

Hopefully things will move quickly now

Heres one of the motor just before it went in



And a couple in the car







Cheers Hallsey

looking very nice!

Just reminds me I really need to give my engine a bit of a paint when I pull mine out to do the engine mounts & lightened flywheel!

Good to seen your car in the mag and on top of the list

Always looking for more HP!.... Nah, i have had a Ogura clutch kit with light weight flywheel in the shed since not long after I finished the conversion. I never had the motivation to pull the engine out before!

Thanks Gordo
Yes get the beast up there and get stuck into it

My son was sponsored by mobil for many years so we've had hundreds of
oil containers,so i decided to put all my nuts,bolts ,washers ,springs,
etc etc etc in them to make it easier to find things

Hi James , gee i dont envy you having to pull the motor out again

Cheers Hallsey

As always Hallsey, looking spectacular!!

Cheers Hallsey

Yes, we have some news on the Cat.

I am going to paint it myself, as I need the practice when I do the Effie (Simon, you had it right all along!)

Just getting the Transalps out of the way then its in to it!

BTW Hallsey, you are an inspiration Ol' Sock!!

I now have a the PPG paint rep onside for the colours, so will start soon (have to as the wife wants to trade in the Patrol and the X-Trail on a new Fourbie which will leave me without a vehicle!!)

Cheers,
Tricky

(apologies for the hijack Hallsey)

Tricky, if your painting is anywhere near the quality of the other work coming out of QBR, you'll be kicking yourself for not jumping into the deep end sooner!!

Seriosly, if a panelbeater can spray paint, you can do it in your sleep!!
