He ran outta paint after painting the left hand exhaust pipe!
Seriously though, cracking job and well worth the effort!
Let us know how you get on with the rebuilt engine and if you notice any difference in performance.

That's upset this little chap.
Seriously though, good job. Yellow with the blue interior is unusual - sort of a Swedish vibe type thing? Better not show this to Freddie Johannsen, or he'll find you and do another burnout in it...
It was gonna go blue again but after much discussion it had to be brighter

Loads of my mates weren't sure about the blue interior but I think that it works well, I've even convinced some non beleavers

I was going to, but the roof was fairly tidy when we stripped it (apart from the a-post) so it got painted

It had the black when it was blue, I quiet liked it so decided to do it again, it's matt black, I might have in done in gloss when it goes back to the painter though

Do yourself a favour Dave.
Just put a correct type (and correct width) Bee stripe on the back end. In gloss.
Keep the area around the lights matt black if you want but keep the rear valance body colour.
Then it will not look so short and heavy at the rear end. Or like a chocolate eclare.
