alphaj12 06 June 2013 08:28 AM

Very nice, would love this as a second one

thenewgalaxy 06 June 2013 10:27 AM

It is really nice to see someone buying an old car and then putting so much into it. Too many of these cars - which are good and honest motors - are being broken at the moment.

When I get the chance I hope to do likewise.
