Oh yeah :yahoo: Shiney things, I like shiney things :rofl2:

Its definately a good idea to get all the parts you'll need, then once paint comes, its just a matter of reassembling it all, not having to worry about finding this or that... Looks like you're giving it a good go, getting everything done the first time. :spot on:

Have you given the seats and door trims a going over with a cleaner/conditioner of some sort, if not you should, it'l make em come up a million bucks.

Like vk.jonno asked, when is the forecast for colour?? :D Once you see colour on her, all nice and shiney, it will give you more motivation then ever, to find the cash for the motor, you'll be out working on the corner before you think about waiting 6 years :p And atleast with paint you can see where the money has gone, although, a motor would definately be a nice thing to look at :)

yea i wanna get a motor in soon so i know everything will fit propaly so once it gets painted and i go to fit something that every thing will bolt strait up to it with no fuss.

wll if its going to take 6 years to get a motor buy the time i get the money to paint it i will be in my 80`s lol.i might just get a old injected 304 to use as a mock up motor and something to start up and move it about if i have to.

i was going to do the body work my self but if i stuffed it up it will cost me more money to get a pro to fix it so i will do it the safe way lol

no i havent done anything with the seats just wiped them with a damp cloth to get the dust off them. the guy i got them off had them sitting in his spare bedroom for 15 years and they were out of his lh sl/r 5000
