heres a few more pics of the engine etc etc and bought some gasket paper n a sum gasket
i didnt like the way the finish came up on the head when i sprayed it black onto bare metal so i striped it back and then etched primered it agen and then decided i was gonna spray it silver insted lol
also started the boring task of fillering n sanding and etch primered the scuttle panel aswel
lol this is my attempt at covering the bay while i sort of the scuttle panel lol
i bought one of these tis weekend so it wud make my life easier puttin everythin back on the engine without scratchin the paint etc
i think i single handedly have been keepin halfords afloat over the past few weeks this is about half the amount of spray cans ive bought since been doin the engine bay lol

Great work fella, she's going to be a nice car.
I like the look of the air box you got off crazy quiff and I might order one, have you trial fitted it? Does it fit well? and what do you think of the quality? etc.

Cheer buddy , um yet to fit it mate but there is a plate that that comes down and the bumper bolt holds it still but they told me they had two made and it was fitted to a cabby they sold ( if u have a look at on there website ull see it under cars
For sale) as for quality then it's good mate, the hole on the top of the box needed a bit of tinkering but other than that it's good mate,
I dnt know if they'll do another mate cuz wen I asked they sed they had summat made but this was a while ago and the last one I had but if they might be able to make another ull have to ask obv lol
