Not working has its perks, undisturbed time in the shed - The Green machine is slowly taking shape.
Wheel arches are complete, front end is starting to get some shape ,Indicators in , Daytime driving light are in, Roof top spots are in, rear number plate hole is done with hidden LED light - grill is ready to go in ,one of these days she should be ready for painting.
Still on the road so the odd therapeutic trip to the beach is possible , she gets a few strange looks at the moment that will pass once she's all painted.

Its the  same one - had to do heaps to it to get it over the pits in WA because they wouldn't recognize any of the engineering certs from Victoria.
Replaced everything from the gearbox backwards, she now has a 9" 2,7 ratio diff with Corvette discs and calipers  - stops on a dime and she purrs along at 100kms @1750rpm.
Stu and the guys before him  put a lot of love into this vehicle.I plan to have her finished in about 18 months
