hey mate, colur's straight out of a spray can, but right on the money I think. Check the ebay section for a link to the ebay blower, now sold, but woulda looked way cool hanging out the bonnet of the Purple People Eater!  |

Bit more progress... Rear beaver, no surprises, just a couple pinholes  Door jambs painted  Rear quarter, check the previous pic of this area, beautiful repair job all in steel  Sill finiished  Ready for paint   Nude bonnet, just waiting for?...  Now, a word to the wise, these are rust fingerprints. This bonnet was bare metalled about a month ago and has been undercover since.... just goes to show that good preparation for paint is essential!  Wheel's not finished yet, needs some sanding and a coat of metalflake.... oh, and a bullet horn button!  |

I had one, they were usually fitted to weber manifold wich comes out a bit wide for a FC, even on a EH they come out next to the gaurd, mine was on a log manifold I will try and find a pic. The injectoin may be more for the strip than the road but it looks pretty cool.
I saw this set up about a year ago go for around $550.
shame you didnt have your wallet out then.

What lies beneath?....  Phew!... nothing as bad as the other side, though why people don't fix little areas like this the right way in the first place is beyond me.  Here's where the real work begins.   |

No progress on the car, but had my surgery yesterday, quite simple procedure, hell, I don't remember a thing!
Today feels like someone has stuck some really think eyelashes down past my tear ducts, doc says I will feel them for a week or two till the stitches dissolve.
I go back to his rooms at the end of this week for an eye test, I think there already is some improvement, though they are bloody sore and I have to spend a lot of time with them closed.... feels like being at work really.
Now I have to go lay down, thank God my wife's a nurse!
'I need 500c's of Milo... STAT!'

Went back to the doc this morning, he's quite pleased with how they are healing and at this stage I can read one more line on the eye chart, go back again in 3 weeks where he will write me a letter recommending me for a Restricted Licence, which will mean I can only drive during the day and within 50k's of home Now, to unlearn all the bad habits I've learnt while watching my wife drive |
