Another update. Engine is out of the yellow car, and I'm in the process of getting the green car ready for the transplant.
Gearbox is unbolted, just got to disconnect the driveshaft from the diff and it's time to put the engine in. [:u]
I'm loving doing this, can't believe I was actually going to pay someone to do it for me, haha. I won't feel the same when it's time for all the wiring. [B)][xx(]

Shouldnt take long blake!

looking good so far.

the wiring is the hardest bit... lucy for you its all there and its not EFI!!!!

basically all you need to do is wire the started and the coil and make sure the fuel lines are hooked up and your engine will run!

the other wires are not important at this stage!! you want the engien running first then get to the rest!!

Got some nice car parts for Christmas.
The parents bought Ty's Simmons for me, which was a surprise. [:u]
Set of Cibie light covers for the yellow car, and some money to waste once it's finally running.

Anyway, I'm going to continue with the engine tomorrow. Hopefully only a day or two to go.

Yeah, awesome present.

Did a couple of photoshops on how it should look with the rims.





Now I really can't wait for the purple one to arrive.

FINALLY!
It's going off early tomorrow morning to have the engine finished off and wired, 5spd installed, registered, and all those little things. He thinks it'll be done Friday arvo, but if I can get it back in a couple of days I'm happy.
