Is this one getting decals and a name like Detroit Hustle?

Always liked the gold on that and think gold really suits the earlier cars........Sounds like lots of photoshopping ahead. :thumbright:

Strip and prep and engine bay for paint and then you'll go "I wish I was fitting headers instead"...

Very true, a miserable and thankless task - lots of cut hands on the horizon.... but completely worth it when it is done, it makes the world of difference.

You may be underestimating my loathing of headers. Pete says I dont know nuffink about header misery until I get a Hemi though...

Ref the bay - it must be a bit like decorating. The painting bit is quite fun as you can see what a difference it makes. Anything leading up to that, the sanding, the filling, the stripping etc is just miserable...
