But this is what it looked like when i bought it only cost €900(£700) the state of it...



With some meguir's and some wheel trimm i was able to get it like this..

Sweet as matey, sounds good, i think i am almost donr with the body mods, think the skirts will be the last purchase, that aint fair i want V6 brakes, koni are quality, heard they are a little harsh even on the softer settings, you will have to mail me some pics of your motor.

We are waiting for a crank, it should have been here friday last week but aint arrived, its going off to an engineers to be ligtened and balanced and have the fly wheel shaved of a few KG's, the blocks been re-bored for its bigger pistons, so when it arrived it will be 3 days at the engineers then 1 day to put it back together again and drop it in, maybe monday next week although i been saying that every week for a month now!!!!
