    A recent engine and gearbox rebuild by Marc Jones at Enzotech at Caboolture here in Qld had me looking for a way to get parts looking "nice". I wanted a standard that I felt was adequate. Well I found it. Also I cannot endorse Marc's work enough, he is a true enthusiast, and has a high standard of finish. None of these parts are painted, is all alloy as it left the factory.
    If you are rebuilding anything and you want parts cleaned of any shape give Wayne Jacobson at Specialised Blasting Services a call 1300850626, tell him I sent you. He will not tell me what he uses, but it is very gentle and fine because he can take the paint off a coke can layer by layer without leaving a mark!
    Don't send components full of grease and oil and crap he will not accept it, degrease and clean it of old gasket material etc first.
    Here are some pics you lot be the judge.

    You want more Fast????????

    I'll tell you after I run it in Horsey, but on the face of it it just feels so "crisp!!!!".
    The new clutch and p/plate, so much lighter and better.
    And can I tell you, to drive LLLLLLLLLLittttle 308 again after sooooo long,was just bloody fantastic.
    Isn't Moretti, John,,,,,,,,,,,,, John, are you there? You do remember what it's like?

    Looks great; but I hope you don't want to concour the car. Know it all's will deduct heaps 'cause it's "too shiny". Ask me how I know!

    Yes, I saw yours at the Canberra Rally, I came 3rd. However this is not polished or buffed it's just clean.

    Bullsh*t. So mine isn't correct and this car is, even though it is shinier than mine? Just as well you don't judge these things; but then again you seem to know just as little as they do.

    Glad I don't bother with them anymore.
