Guest Nicholas Posted November 29, 2014 Share Posted November 29, 2014 (edited) Looks stunning, question for you Lee, if you had a big power motor and solid engine mounts would a bay like this be likely to suffer from the filler cracking the paint?

fisherjohn Posted November 30, 2014 Share Posted November 30, 2014 That is the same colour but convertible and only goes out on high days and holidays. Lee is now teasing you by not posting the car with the engine fitted as that is better than sex I can assure you at 56 yrs old I have been astounded by a fewe things in my time but a Supra with a smoothed engine bay and an SRD built engine is in my opinion every car lovers dream - he is holding off on the fitted engine shots to tease you guys !!!!!!
