Are you going to relocate the battery to the boot as well? If you get a chance you should tidy the bay up a little at the same time, would take it to the next level man.

yeah id love to! but I have none what so ever prep or paint skills, but batt is def going in boot and tray coming out,also fusebox into glovebox, im talking to a painter atm about it all, so when its running I"ll take to his shop and well go from there,i guess its all the little things like hiding wiring ect, ive never done it before, so see how much longer its off the road? I spose its a hard call I brought the vl as a bit of a runabout, but I guess as they all do turned into a bit more than that,i wana build up my spare motor and fit a glide into it eventllly, so will b back off the road when funds permit,

That's looking really good. I'd be inclined to coat/paint all the engine bits now, that way it would save having to do it further on down the track (means you'd only have the bay left to paint later on).

looking the goods

I spose the type of $$ on paint will determin all of that, ---------- Post added 16-03-14 at 13:47 ---------- [/COLOR] Quote: Originally Posted by BUD [View Post] looking the goods thanks bud, funny how $$$ and time frames r blown out of the water, haha
