Cool, and good luck with the rest of the rebuild. 3.0 sounds nice but arent they heavier and dont they mess up the handlig?

I know wat your sayin alot of people here dont mind and still go to the shows and that, but if my car was done up a bit and had a bit more power then i could really have some fun!

But it will be niceto check out others cars and get some ideas

Awesome looking Car, choice selection of Modifications. I especially like what you have done to the engine bay. Not bad for 2 and a half years work. I got to nearly 4 years and there was still loads more that i really wanted to do.

Thanks very much K5,i am working on the engine bay at the moment,i finally got my hands on a spare windscreen washer fluid tank & power steering fluid tank,so now i can do those as well.I suppose i aint done too bad,from stock to what i have in just over 2 1/2 years.But beleive me i still have a lot to do as well,it never seems to end.Thanks for the comments.

Hi guys,just to let you know i have updated the Engine bays pics on page 1,The pictures dont show the colour properly as it was very sunny when the pics were taken,the blue is actually a deeper colour then it looks.Hope you like.

Mate, that engine bay is stunning...just one question...how the hell do you get it so CLEAN???!!!!! [img]/biggrin.gif[/img]

No-matter what i do, mine's always mucky, and i don't want to risk steam cleaning it in case it doesn't start again lol

Any hints and tips gratefully received :tongue:
