I had a play with the old bonnet today and threw some of the colour on it to double check I like it, which I do!!!

Okay fellas!
It has been quite a while since a progress update.
Here is what has changed in that time.

I am not using the EFI Fairlane motor and trans.
I am getting a rebuilt 302 Windsor and C4 transmission from a mate.
Has 600 Holley carb, nothing overboard but a good solid motor.

We have replaced the radiator support panel and painted all the outside of our inner guards and radiator support in our 'home-brew' blackish colour, it is similar to Ford's Ego colour on the BF/FG falcons:
Image

All the front suspension has been fitted back in:
Image

I have had my skyline axles redrilled out to ford stud pattern and i have got EA/EB brakes to go on:
Image
Image

....And finally:......
We have front wheels on the ground:
Image

Next weekend we are going to paint the engine bay as we will have the motor and trans soon. I have chosen a yellow, slightly different to the tinter seen previously in the thread. I will keep you all posted
