Painted My Engine
Furyous - 4/1/14 at 01:12 AM

Like a five year old bringing his scribbles home from school, I thought I'd show off the work I've been doing.

I took the engine out to do some work on it and while it was out I painted it, as well as the suspension, brakes, and engine bay. The old powder coat was flaking and rusting so I stripped it all down with a flap wheel and repainted the chassis.

Having the engine out also meant I could move a chassis rail to clear the shortened sump made by Furyrebuild to Flak Monkey's design modified for the 10* tilt with the MX5 gearbox.

I took the Fury logo from the sticker on my roll bar and made a template.

I'll be replacing the header tank with something better (Like a Polo tank) and still need to pin down the wires, so it's still a little messy.

I need to find some yellow springs!

Not too long to go before I can try to register it.
