haha I have already started another motor, i've just been slack and havent done anything on top of the bottom end yet - slowly but surely - I am leaning towards doing the trim next though.
Alright well some updates since I havent done any for ages.
The car spent some time at Vulcan again, got the whole front end rebuilt, headlights totally re-conditioned, new LE front lip, aerial deleted, passenger door lock shaved, door handles colour coded and the fuel filler flap is now flush and doesnt have the little hole for your finger.
Most recent pics below:
The existing motor is about to be removed and the car sent to Vulcan again to have the engine bay done to a high standard - usual stuff, holes filled, things removed etc etc - so should have her back from that later October.
The new motor is just waiting on some key components to arrive and then that will start getting assembled as pretty much everything else is currently sitting on my pool room couch taking up room, so I will try and keep some updates happening on that.
Gearbox and tailshaft as well as diff are all sorted so just gotta talk to my interior man about what we can do with the car and go from there. That side of things is still a little while away yet, but its getting there slowly slowly.

Cheers guys, i'm pretty sure i'll get impatient without the car so hopefully things progress at a decent rate otherwise i'll be a right ba$tard for the next few months lol
