I'm taking the engine out with wayne in a couple of weeks.I've booked the engine hoist off him. Then the engine bay is getting cleaned. Then we're welding it and filling it to make it all smooth. I need a new bonnet and 2 new doors as well as all door cards.

There is still a bit of work to do. Oh yeah, it also need new coolant hoses.
