I will post after the weekend when I get time to do more.
I just got the back light area smoothed out and am also ready to cut the holes for the new lights.I am doing three 70 mm lights each side.
the color you see is just one quick coat and it will darken up a bit with a sand three more coats maybe even a preal or two

In regards to the engine, ultimately it's your choice, both will have good points and bad. Just a case of weighing up the options and deciding what you want from there.
Good luck with it.

Tough 6's are pretty fun, and chew less fuel.
There are loads of nice uc's going around now

I had I am a builder by trade and the have brace straping on the and are glued and screwed together, built like a brick shit house
I guess its kind of " RED NECK " and in a prefect world I would have brand new stands but i would rather spend the $165 on the car and not stands
thanks for you input will try to get some more photos up soon
