I still have such along way to go and I very much dout it will make any shows next year due to finacing what I want to do to it while doing my house up, but at the end of the day I enjoy tinkering so im just going to take my time and get it spot on;)

Also Got my self a tailored cover for it.. Its ace :lol:

Well peeps.. Got off my arse and done a little bit of stripping of the motor while the mrs was out.
Got all the engine out now. Just the underneath and the back end left to strip, then I can start prepping for it to be painted underneath and the bay repainted:)
