You certainly need your own thread... Is the reason you haven't shown rear end pics because the cam covers are sticking out of the back end?

Subaru's are cool! Well, when it's ready, send me a picture of the engine bay. I would like to put it in my other conversions gallery: Link to gallery

No just wanted to get if finished then post pics on build and other stuff.But unfortunately I have made some discoveries recently that look like I am going to have to take the engine installer to court.
Thats why I am looking into other areas of the build(aerodynamics etc) the engine side of things is making my blood boil at the moment and the less said about it the better.
I have been a user of this site for ages but have rarely posted much. I am a real novice when it comes to restoring cars.This is my first real attempt and as I lacked the skills and knowledge I have had to rely on others to carry out the work.As you can guess one garage has TRIED to **** me over.
I have put my efforts into endless hours of research and how I want the car to look and what parts to use .
I think I will start a thread on the build.
PS thanks for your comments Ricola I have emailed you in the past to pick ya brains and did recently on info on a G50 .Your builds another car I have been looking at for ages gaining info ,knowledge and the will to to carry on and finish mine.I nearly sold the car a month or two ago as I was so frustrated.

Having a build thread is a great way of bouncing ideas around before you are fully committed to anything, it will save you time and money to test them out virtually first..
