HEY!

finally got the head off tonite. whoop whoop!! takin in to work tomorow to steam clean it then drop it off to the garage where HeadFirst will collect it and have the head skimmed and pressure tested! game on. its possible that the head gasket is the original from new as u can see from the pics its taken its toll. it crumbled as we removed it from the block. theres lots of cleanin to do to the block n the crowns of the pistons.

among removin the head tonite i got busy paintin my rocker cover black as i think it looks tosh left standard. i also painted the mesh that is housed in the front of the bumper black as it was lookin rather chavvy in silver, it now looks the nuts.

heres pics of progress on "Project Peanuts".

thats all for now folks!!
