#145738 update as promised 8)

Got me a cherry picker

Image


pulled a B16


Image


Then some troubles, The wheels had wheel locks and the dude didnt give me a key.


Image



And i figured that my wheel lock breaker kit would do the trick, but it broke.... so i had to take the spindles off to get the axles out and continue on my swap (knowing i have a set everything is great.)


Anyway, i got that BS out of the way and pulled the B18


Image


Then i got mostly everything out of the way to give the bay a quick semi-gloss black and turn this....



Image


into this...


kinda crappy pic

Image


Then i put all the stuff i took out before back, as well as the B16


Image



And this is what i ended the day to.


Image



TOMORROW:

Look for the suspension getting finished, the engine getting ready to go, and hopefully put some Int back in
