Prezzi number 2 G- grind 228 camshaft

FedEx man came today....!

Exhaust, new clear headlights, front small lower grills, wheel arch and deep front duck bill!
Can't wait to put it all back together

[EwenHayton]

So car is in the paint shop and shuld get her back on Monday, as its gonna take a few days if not a week to put back together not to mention getting exhaust fitted.

I have decided to take off the head and clean and polish it once she gets home. Gotta put a new water pump on anyway so the belts have gotta come off and i have already drained the coolant, Plus with the cam shaft coming i thought f**k it might as well while the hoods open!

Hopefully she might make it to kallbarry for a family holiday so i can get some good photos in February!

Wish me luck guys lol
