All we have to do is:
*new cage
*new tinware
*lighten interior
*paint interior
*new fueltank

*re-wire whole car
*re-assemble whole car
*dyno and tune
(Heaps of time LOL)
new bars in cage extra clearance for g/box starter etc
extra bars tagging back to 4 link
front legs
these new engine blocks have too much weight on them
brad thought he'd lighten it a bit LOL
cutting new plate to tie engine/ , g/box to cage

starting to get some stuff cleaned up and ready for re-assembly

So I'm guess stock your painting everything that was pink green? So the bet between westi and mike Waldron will now involve a lime green tutu? Or perhaps borat style mankini lol

Dunno about throwing spanners at him I think it would be more like trying hit him in the nuts with spanners lol
