spare xe is in bits now..... block has been butchered to 2.1 as orig 2.1 had slight scoring..... 1 piston is a bit nicked...

could rob start with the pug on the cheap....
cage, exhaust (needs a new one) suspension, brakes and tyres....

Good track cars, how much will you have spent to do the above, is it worth it or should you just buy that mi16 for 3k
