sweet score man!
I am sure you will turn it into something awesome!
Do you need any Panels or are you just going to rob the ones I sold you for your ute ;)
Sing out if you need any guards and a bonnet and I will see what I can do.

Good luck with the build, I am sure you are thinking those famous last words........
