update,,,, been busy cleaning again chaps, i degreased the block as it was shockingly dirty so out came the wd40 and a toothbrush, came up well, just needs paint now, i also got the main aluminium pieces degreases and glass peened up in work so they look great now, and i also got a new vice and the misses insisted on drilling and fitting it to the bench

and i opened up the heater to clean it and i nearly got lost in the forest that fell out of it :rolleyes:

all for now :aviator:

ok fellas been busy welding the floor as under the perfect looking floor and seam sealer there was quite a bit of rust in the footwells :rolleyes:

so out came the grinder and welder, ran out of welding wire so thats why the drivers side isnt finished and they both need seam sealer but getting there, also painted up the block and a pic of all the bits the engines getting, oh and i sored a piston so should be collecting that tomorrrow

out came the grinder

then ran out of wire so shes sitting like his now

and then the block and parts

all for now
