Fitting all stuff back from Monday, hippo should be able to drive around Wed. After first test drive we will fix other smaller damages.

Then it needs a good washing, as it's covered by layer of 4 weeks dirt. - But still have some of Shine :D
 
Probably no more pics of parts ;) . They start to assembly it tomorrow and i need to go to work , so finished result will be photographed.
To be honest there is nothing serious to show. In wooden crate is new IRD

Starting to polish engine elements. You can see the difference, but this is not a final effect. I need to use higher gradation sand papers (for this i use a 1000 and 1500)

Bling must be :love:
