Havent posted in a long time.
Not many update on the car, just one tiny problem...






A rod wanted to leave the block so it opened a little hole on the side.

Well I guess that's what I get for buying a used engine and just throwing it in the car and taking it to the track...

Went ahead and bought a new engine and had it completely rebuild this time around. Everything new :mrgreen:



Finally got it running again!

Agreed.

Have you thought about doing the alpina stripes on the side of the car?

[TimeMachinE30]

Wow. Sorry to hear the damage... A car this nice needs a nice engine, that's been reworked.
