Nice! Did you do much with the engine upgrade wise? Looking back at my previous posts it only took another 18 months to get my paint done! I wasn't happy with the first batch of paint that went on in February this year) so rubbed it back again and painted it the correct shade of Absinth this time.

What type of sound deadening did you use behind the seats and did you put any in the roof? I used some of that heinously expensive butyl/foil/foam stuff in those areas and looking at the doors wishing I could get it in behind the door card rather than on the back of the door skin as it would only use 2/3 as much all round.

What have you got to do to get over the line ? Interior ??

Yes only really got interior to go seats,door trims carpet etc,hopefully not to much longer.
