Id rather not say how much for paint and panel, we will just say about the 8k mark. My mate is tuning the car for me, he used to work in perth and has personally built some big hp cars (just finidhed building a 800hp 454 bb) and my other mates work has a dyno i can use. Ive managed to chase down some chrome door handles and few other bits and pieces so will get some pics of them once there on.

My daily was sold the other day so its full steam ahead lol! My bank has taken a belting but its worth it, Autofest is looking very promising i will enter the show and shine and maybe the dyno shoot out (Not that i think 600hp will get close to winning but who knows....) Wiring is now all hidden in the guards, guards back on, most of front is back on, side skirts and body trims all on. All thats left is cooler piping, mounting microtech, mounting surge tank, 044 pump and lines, fit p/s lines and res, catch can, h/lights then lots of smaller stuff. Anyways more progress pics: Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
