strewth!

well, I dont see the colour scheme being adopted by the army anytime soon but I reckon it'll be a hit with the slightly younger set!

Best of all its another one saved!

Looks like youre giving it a nice finish too!...will it extend to the same magenta colour on the landy plate on grill and diff cover? To "let the engine colour seep out!"

Howdy Digger , I plan to paint the grill , door hinges and the metal strips on the floor of the tub in the magenta . Was thinking of painting the head light surrounds in the magenta as well but it may be to much on the front with the grill being the same color . I'll see what happens when it gets closer to doing it

Technicolor Dream

Joseph's coat will have nothing on Mick's technicolour dream.

We could call it urban camoflage as it would blend in exactly with the rice burners around my area.

Howdy Guys , Slight hiccup with the project for this weekend . None of the bits i had ordered had turned up in the post so project is on hold for this weekend . I did have plans of having the engine in and putting all the accessories on it as well as the grill panel and radiator . But yet again i have been rear ended by something or someone. Hopefully i'll get some stuff done next week . Till then

G'day All, Well my 2 water pumps turned up from the UK today so I will be able to fit 1 if it stops bloody raining long enough, most likely to stop thru the day whilst I'm at work, and resume pouring when I get home anyway cheers Dennis

Engine colour

Whoa... A good thing is that you'll be able to easily spot the oil/coolant leaks down the track..

But the best thing is that there's another one on the road

Good on ya!!!
