I'm pleased you beat me now!! :grin: :grin:

Just got the head today, It needs a skim I'm told (by Peter), my old man is a legend when it comes to head skimming, but it looks like I need to build it back up ready to fit after the skim! Hope it is straight forward, as I've never attempted anything like this before!

Anyhow heres some pics of the head:




hope you can make out the work thats been done to it!

called at my local garage the other day, was quoted £600 for side, bonnet and tailgate resprayed, so snapped his hadn off! waiting for my bonus then it is going in! Also asked about fitting the head, and he told to not to worry about it cos he would sort it out, cheap as chip was his las comment!

Can't wait to get it done now!
