    Ah perfect, frustrating how they change small things like that, definitely a good upgrade in preparation for gillyz especially

    Did you grab a 13b water pump or a 12a water pump? as the stud pattern is different/extra stud on the 13b (fc anyway)

    That kit is perfect, so good

    Then placed it into the car to start to see what else needs to be made, gold top socks used to block up the intake as this is 6bucks not 6cents

    As most of the rust repair work has been completed, after driving us to bluff and back in her car Amy volunteered to put some paint on the cars underbody, engine bay and interior, and as I am painting illiterate and the car park was void of cars for painting,this worked out well. Colour is a factory fc champagne colour and looks super swell.

    And apart from 20% of the rust repairs that have been started that’s where it is up to so far, thanks to Amy for convincing me to actually do something on it as well as making it move along at a pace faster than measured in decades and all the lovely photos, Charlie the cat and this album

    It was then bought home to start the rust work and to sit and look at while sampling some ouzo and limoncello

    The underside was blasted and painted black which also looks awesome and clean to work on

    From there it was deemed appropriate to send it to the sandblasters thereby avoiding any inconveniences relating to manual labour to get an idea on what shape the body was in, as C.A Levien does such an amazing job too
