yea going to try and bribe the gf to sit outside and click away as im working once I really start getting into it. Im kinda stuck on what I want to do paint wise. Ive always been in love with blues and black but the sandstone has grown on me slightly and definitely be the cheapest route just getting it refreshed. any opinions?

You're an intense individual I see....you pulled the harness off the engine to pull the engine....I hope you don't go about the rest of your swap the hard way.

Harness was coming off anyways and started by taking that off before I got to pulling it. Plus sold the motor without so didn't matter much
