epic, fancy helping me out in the winter, smoothing the bay of a mk1

would love to higgo but your a long way from me

just about to load some more pix up and my comp freaked out and deleted all the pix off my camera so will have to take some more now so pissed off

gutted, I'm fixed to this so i deman you go get some!! and I'm sure we can sort something

yeah i will take some tomorrow after work mate.

Is that standard paint you've used on the block? Will it be ok, not flake off under heat i mean? I know the block doesnt get as hot as the head, but it gets warm at least

get the pics of mike. I'm looking forward to seeing this

looks really good mate, has it got to the stage yet where you just look at it before you paint it and realise your not happy and go and smooth something else?

if it hasnt - youve not smoothed enough hahahahaha
