    Looks stunning, never really been a massive fan of chrome engines but I think that looks absolutely spot on lots of effort put in there. Car looks really nice and done properly, a job well done. I'm looking forward to seeing that at future shows

    I fitted a new clutch kit then decided to bolt the gearbox to the block as one, then lifted the shell over the engine! rather then drop the engine into the bay which I did last time. this was a lot easier and worked out better.

    Thanks for the comments guys, well it takes a lot of time and patience!
    just a matter of keeping it like that. but I have decided to take it off the road over the winter which should help! plus then i can get on and do some other bits a want to do!

    Awesome.

    Chrome stuff always looks at its best in a black engine bay.
