Dan Evans Posted April 25, 2010 Author Posted April 25, 2010 ***Update***I've not updated this for a while, so i thought i would keep you guys in the loop as to were i am with the Glanza at the moment...The block has been sent away to be bored out, honed and decked all round, so i should have that back next week/ following week, and then the re-build can take place.While I've been waiting for the engine, I've stripped things off the car like brackets and braces to get painted in a Bright colour (wont say until i have them back), i also got the paintbrush out and painted a few things to make them look alot more fresh......I also decided to re-paint the under arches aswell just to give them that fresh and clean look...Before;After;Hopefully, if finances, and plans go well, this thing will be on the road in a couple months... with a nice surprise that hasnt been done with a starlet before....
