OORU brother!

Hey Drew,Well thats gonna make us neighbours then!, kool place is good old Dunsy! only bad thing have to say is very expense to live ie food,petrol etc and school holidays,long weekends,and at its worst on easter and christmas does our heads in!! ive lived there for nearly ten years now and finally got in a postion to buy and i cant afford Dunsbourgh any more! thats kool though im building a brand newy in Vasse, south side of hwy to margs near industral area! i looked long and hard at all options and found my dollar went alot futher their most importantly puts my son in vasse primary school which is well renowed as a awsome school! so all good also means i can pay it off alot quicker and stop going to sea!  jus up the road and still an awsome part of the world,and its NOT in Busso which is awsome! ANYWAYS thanx heaps for the photos of the paint ,it looks awsome did they lay down much clear? very hard to tell in the direct sunlight,but i do love this colour and how the shades come through in different stages of afternoon light! wat about the nose cone? 5k ha! was that rust aswell or prep and paint? as far as the manifold goes i still have mine and i also have 45 side draghts with manifold for 2ltr. i have down draght for sale,but as to date no bites,then im also thinking of useing the sideies for my Yb project and grab a set of downies for the RS....i dont know and must obvisly work it out  before i spend anymore money! hence the sale of the GT,that included  the house build , 3 cars, a harley ,bills,son and schooling soon, im just not gonna get to finish GT and i would rather pass it to someone who can and will enjoy it instead of it sitting around and waiting,also redirect the coin into these other areas! i guess its tuff at the top hey:) and i should stop jawing on as lots of people dont have half the stuff ive got! thats not to say it came easy as i had to sacrifice for it! blah blah blah! :)
ANYWAYS! thanx again for the piks and would really like to see your progress on the lemon/lime! Yew!
OORU!
