josh make sure you fill the gearbox oil up before you take it to matt! will be hard to get to the bolt for the inlet once everything else is in place. Its the bolt ontop of the box, i used castrol high performance in mine and was fine.

Also bolt the front bar in place, and the front frame to body bolts. Id also put the master cylinders and pins in.

How is the rocker cover, inlet mani and wiper motor blinging going?

btw the paint looks hot :D

Yo Josh,

I took one wheel into the powder coaters, they are thinking they maybe able to keep the polished section and i may not have to sand blast them either, he is going to put them in the oven and see how the current paint comes up and we go from their.

i'll let you know, sorry for the hyjack.

Grant
