[vdub_1985]

You not got a Mani yet gib thought you had one they sound nice but mpg will drop down about 5mpg.

[Gibson]

No i havnt got one yet....

Been looking for a well priced one but im poor at the moment. Might port the standard manifold if I get no joy.

[vdub_1985]

I know how that feels at the min mate my car is ready to go back to stealth but need to raise a few hundred first to make sure I have enough for everything that needs doing not including tax, not and insurance all before ultimate dubs

[EUROCHRIS]

Slow progress ATM

[EUROCHRIS]

Pictures to come!!!!
Been sorting the bay out recently grinding back to bare metal ready for smoothing
Keep yal posted

[EUROCHRIS]

FINALLY GOT A BIT OF WORK DONE!!!!!

So then update, as i said yesterday ive managed to start prepping the bay for welding....as ive now decided its going uber smooth!!!!

so here you are pics for you all before she goes to my mates for welding and for me to have a go...








left side nearly done















that was at the end of the first 3 hour session

2nd day,







bit more rot on this side but it will all be sorted soon

not bad for a car that was used by me for 11 years to move 2 houses, shows and general tarmac terorism









thats as far as ive got so far and im awaiting some new brushes so i can get in the nooks and crannies before welding

next job is removal of scuttle tray but again waiting for a drill bit removal tool to be delivered.

oh also i started removing the strut top sealant....what a bastard!!!



more updates soon as im determined to get the bay done and sprayed by edition38 this year to a show standard
