im after pictures of peoples engine bays,
prefferably not standerd bolt on things, but more after ideas on removing things and welding un needed stuff up and hiding wires
bassically really clean or show cars
ive got the engine out and have welded up all the holes ive got no use for, the battery trays gone, fuse box is in the glove box and the ac is gone,
im thinking along the lines of custom stainless over flow and washer tanks behide the strut towers.
removing the bumps on the right hand wheel arch which did have the over flow mounted too.
and removing the imprints under where the air box was and the battery
if anyone has any pics which have someone of my ideas done i would be very thankful if you shared them with me or if you have any ideas
cheers

cheers for that NTMID 8, much help there.
your car seems to be coming along nice, not long now. the easyier half is about to start, keep the good work up
im quite liking Corrans work on the top of the fire wall with the lip and ridge removal, its much more better aswel as the removal of the loom entrance hole for the wiper motor.
now something ive been thinking off is removing the charcole fuel canister, to me its a waste of space, ugly and making it clutted in that area
whats peoples thoughs???? will coppers pick on it being gone/notice its missing???
