    Heres mine , to much to list whats done but if anyone can pick even half there doing well !
    Thats stage 1 , stage 2 begins soon , hide the rest of the wiring , detail the motor , fit the manifold and FMIC.
    The overflow bottle has already gone and need to paint a few bits.
    Right click save as . .

    i did the street commodores thing with the over flow bottle next to the radiator. but i've now put the old one back cos is was kind of useless, it didn't hold any extra water. i would fill it up and when i start the car the bottle starts to fill and empty it so i put the old one back in.
