Me and Dave have sat staring at it for the last few weeks thinking hmmm what shall we do with it?
Well we came to the same conclusion!!

"Drag Day" lol

So Dave scooped up a pile of parts and built an 1835 twin carbed motor with modified 1300 heads and an engle 120 cam.

That was bench run and broke in yesterday, so in the afternoon we pulled the car round the side and decided to strip it!!!

Today i put a lot of time into the body prep, i think theres about 12 1/2 minutes in total.

Then i Laid on the top coat, flat matt black which is very tricky to get the thick ripple effect just right out of a gun, so a foam roller,paintbrush and my expert skills really paid off here. I think i got the whole thing covered in 3 hours inside and out, and BOOM!!!! Dont she look just purdey!!!

Ladies and gentleman, i give you (what we have so far)

The "Tetnusaurus"

All done in 2 days, Tsar would have knocked that out in 2 years!!!!!!
