Title: Still got it
Post by: The Green Reek on Wednesday, 20 April, 2016, 11:15:40 PM
Been a while fellow reekers.
Most of my upgrades are finished now.
I've been slow due to other projects.
I took the green toy down to the Echuca Swap meet at the weekend.
Shannons ran a show and shine.
So up against some really nice historical vehicles she pulled off second place.
Lost to a rather perfect 66 Mustang.
Happy all the same.

Hi Phil
I didn't actually take any pics on the day because I was working the swap meet.
I can take some of the reek now but it basically looks the same. Just better.
I resprayed the roof and insert because I have a couple of bubbles. Turned out to be due to a previous black coat that I hadn't removed completely.
Re-did some work on computers and electrics.
Modified the lifters to work better.
The big job was a complete rebuild on the engine.
More vooom now. Big valves, performance heads, better cooling as speed etc
