Let me start by saying I really want a sora blue car. I must say though that the engine makes all the polished and plated stuff really stick out with the red bay. This update is kind of a testing ground for the restoration of the other car. For some of the items from the second car I included them in the replate, etc. since I was already doing it. And as I mentioned to some I have been accumulating parts for several years now. Some stuff I bought has since been NLA'd.

Technically the engine should be blue since it is a metric 5 main block with the H20 kit.
