I've got to say I love the moon 'brand' too. I've always loved moon discs. Part of it is the immediately implied hot rod heritage/vibe, probably only Rat Fink and maybe Clay Smith Cams is on par with it. The other part is that I love cars in bright yellow! :lol:

Some updated pics and some progress from the weekend fitted up first chrossmember that i had modified with a rear mounted rack conversion /Problem number one when i fitted the engine up into the engine bay the sump which was modified by v6 conversions fouled on the sump.(Different mounts for the rack).So i went to the container and dragged out the other chrossmember that v6 conversions done about 5 years ago (number one fc ek v8 conversion)Fitted it up then refitted the engine to the car fitted up fine didnt hit on the firewall but the blower snout was 35mm in front of the radiator support.To fix will need to move blower and engine back approx 70mm no big problem just need to get some sheetmetal this week whilst im working in Canberra.

That's a serious 'Grey Motor' you've shoe-horned in there, Fat! :shock: :wink:
How did you go finding the right size 'tank' for the front? ..I''l try to get down to the shed soon (now if fixed my oil leak)..or give us a bell when you're ready to lay some colour on...(and don't panic I'll do the line-tape over the louvers on the tail gate. :wink: ).
