That LS you have looks very tidy inside - I bought a used core sight unseen and it was immaculate inside - apart from a bad lifter that got swapped out - hope you get a good couple of days on it next week...

Having built cars with £5-10K paint jobs I won't be doing that again! Woody will stay with his original battle scared paint, I do however like to have a smart engine bay so will blast the fire wall once Grizz has finished with my blaster.
The challenge comes with where do you stop... IF I paint the interior then do I blast it. If I am going to blast it do I take the windows out. If I take the windows out.... and so the snowball grows....
Fully expecting to change out some lifters and trays once I have the engine fired up but, hopefully I can put that off until I have a few miles under my belt. PLUS! I have the damn Christmas tree to pick up in Woody that has now become pretty much the only thing my daughter talks about....
Will wonder over and have a look at your build.
Thanks!
