Thanks, thought I'd do something a bit out of the ordinary! As for the engine, last I heard it was being mocked up. That was last week. I'm hoping to have it in the next couple of weeks.... As soon as dave finds time to put it together.

Well the inside of the car is more or less finished, seat is in, dash is in, harness is in, shifter is in, everything is painted... Just waiting on some aluminium to make an adaptor for the boss kit on the steering wheel, and waiting on a set of aluminium door and rear quarter panels from the states.... I started masking up all the openings this arvo as the inside will now be shut up until it's painted! hoping to have a coat of paint on by the end of this week... I have a week off between jobs so can get some jobs/dragcar done! here are some pics....

yeah, I'm absolutely chuffed that it's all one color! I must admit though, i hate prep work like nothing else! I'm pretty happy with the result so far considering my limited prep work....

And bam! 1 black bug.... it didn't turn quite as flat as i would've liked as i used jet black with a flattening agent in it. I think it takes a little time to flatten using this method??? Maybe someone could shed some more light on it.... But i'm happy enough, It's all black and it don't look too bad!

On the ground! hopefully for good.... The bonnet IS staying blue! It has pin striping and surface rust that i cant bring myself to paint over, It just cant be re-created so i decided to leave it.... Ratter.... I love it. I'll love it even more when i the engine is in!
