Motor and gearbox have been repainted and look awesome.

High Scoobs,

Mate your car is looking better and better everyday.

Just a question on Engineers, have you engaged in one yet ?? I'm not happy with my Engineer as he's gone all wobbly about the new RTA changes for them. I believe the RTA vehicle standards remain as is but heaps more liability for the Engineers.

Regards Greg
So many cars so little time!

Yes, I got an engineer to come and look at it about 12 months ago and he put a job number on it.
He said that if the rules change I have 6 months to get the car finished because it is already in the build.
I've since heard from someone else that it could be 12 months to have it finished, as I'm hoping to get mine completed in the next month it should be okay.
Hopefully it will be off to the trimmers next week if all goes well.

Looking good Scoob. Coming along very nicely. Are you running a short nose water pump (308) and matching Gilmer Drive?
If so are you intending on using the standard altinator mount or wont that line up???
If that doesn't line up, do you know of an after market mount that will line up? Hmmm many questions.........
Run what ya brung and hope it's enough
