Well ive just ordered 4L of some EGO colour paint for the beast, hopefully will have the old engine out, painted engine bay and then maybe with a little luck may even get the V8 in there. Finally some progress for once.

That will look very very nice.
Looking forward to seeing it. There just isnt enough X series Falcons on here! Hopefully we can change that bit by bit.

I must say I'm rather impressed. So impressed that I want to twist the arm of a local lady into giving me her factory black XF ghia. The thing hasn't moved for 3 years and every time I talk to her about it she freezes up when I offer her a price.

been busy over the weekend, got rid of all the glue and **** from the side mouldings, removed all chrome edging, engine is bay is all cleaned out and pretty much ready to go. decided I am going to put BA side indicators where the alloy head badge used to be. also covering over the key hole on the boot, and passenger door. also covering up the aerial hole aswell.
Decided also to take the chrome edging off the boot and my mate is gonna spot weld all the holes up. Overall been pretty good 2 weeks time we will hit it hard and then will be able to paint finally! here are progress pics over the last 2 days  damn sheep eating one of the bikes!
