keep up the good work micheal, be well worth it down the road. and ye its a nightmare working on a car with no shed or anything.
rocker stoppers arrived today thanks to squire and alvin reid. tomorrow should be fun!!
engine all unbolted and wiring. all odd bolts in the downpipe and one diff bolt gave hell but all done, by myself which im happy about. dropped other engine upto stiv at md tuning and the redtop will be going up once ive it out. once engine is ready and rebuilt car will be dropped up for some work.
light bit of sanding and stripping done then went to town with a wire wheel so got a lot of the heavy stuff off. as you all can see its still in but working on it. the shite that sticks to the body is unreal. wrecked after the long weekend shifts at work as well as placement but fair proud of my progress and ive an idea of what goes where etc.
