So I thought it'd be time to start a thread on how I'm going with my newest project. I swear to god that I will finish this one, this time
Back in Ye olden days, I shifted from Volvo to a Nissan Sil80 for a track drift car (because so many of my irl friends convinced me that was the way to go)
but I didn't have the passion for it. So I had it on the track 3 times, and then sold it. Then life got in the way, and I went to uni, I studied filmmaking, and bought 2 360GLT cars for a film that I was going to make. But funding was an issue, so they stayed in my shed, with this AQ171c that I'd sunk thousands of dollars into, they were just sitting there.
So when I'm not working, I use my expensive cameras, to film me working on my cheap cars
So far I've cut the front of the car to get the engine out, because I can't easily drop it, like it's meant to be done. I'll make something to make it permanently detachable later. The engine came out, and has been donating parts to 3SEXTY like the alt, and engine mounts. And here's a shiny new paint job on the Penta if you don't feel like watching my awkward videos.
There's a few recorded live streams, but we won't bother with that here.

I'll probably make at least 1 per week, maybe more if time, and weather permits.
