Well yet again despite my best efforts my plans have changed meaning this car won't be finished to level I planned and will basically now be out back to more or less standard spec and sold.

So all the planned parts will soon be available in the part section and the car sold as a complete rolling shell that would just require an engine.

So if anyone is interested in any parts or the car itself let me know pls.

Keeping the white car and selling silver or selling both?

If you do break for parts I'd be keen to buy the one off gauge cluster. Just name a price mate!

Already sold the silver, selling the white one now too basically as a full car minus the engine!

Mirrors shouldn't be on the list, my fault! Tweaks has already put first dibs on them I think anyway! Sorry!

So cracked on with the white one today to get it back to a complete car minus the motor ready for sale, only thing is it's starting to look too clean and tidy to sell! Hmm!

Got a rare tidy not chopped or rotten front bumper support bar from tweaks that I treated to a lick of nice new paint to make look even nicer....

Before....


After...




Arches all done and a new set of adjustable gymkhana shockers added which also had a lick of paint, rears...



Fronts...


Rear spoiler back on....





Plus couldn't help trying a wheel on, starting to look more like a car again!...



Although they are horrible standard wheels, still can't help like just how clean the car looks!...might have to break the bad news to the wife that I want to keep it and have 2 Scoobys!

Drew, that car looks too clean....fix it and turn it into a track slag like we discussed. (Saves you painting the RA white )

Cheers boys!

Yeah I'm a bit gutted this won't get built to the level I original planned but I still want to make it as nice as possible regardless, the car deserves it as it's just that rot free and was about to be scrapped before I bought it, would have been a real shame!

Had the day off work for my birthday today and spent all at in it almost!

New adjustable suspension all on, brakes all refitted and finally she was rolling or the 1st time in nearly 2 years!...


Then started on the front end...


Lights, side lights radiator, bumper bar and original bumper refitted...




Bit more like a car now! Plus got the interior centre console all back together...


Rear to finish now then I just need to decide if I should sell it or keep it!
