dont spend allot of time at home where the car is but i've got a few little bits painted up nicely

wasnt happy with the look of the radiator having a nice freshly painted cowling and crappy fan motor sticking through it so i took it apart again and painted the motor.

then painted motor


and finished item


then moved onto the gearbox cleaning it up and painting it so before


then after


and finnaly the starter motor got some tlc aswell as was looking verry ruf
before


then the finished product


dont get allot of time working on the car so thats it for now...

Great work bud! I would love to take my engine this far, but this time round it has to stay in the bay. Keep it up mate, it will be awesome when its back on the road :)
