Thats a very nice clean example, perhaps the meet isn't a good idea, you'll be spending a fortune after it!!!!! it will be "Oh I want that, that and that"!!!!

Very nice looking car and especially like the colour really think dark blue suits the Subaru.
So what's going to be the first modification then Russ?, set of 18" rims maybe prodrive springs. Plenty of time before you need to start christmas shopping let the rollercoaster begin .

Thanks for those kind words, I'll be needing all your help, thats why Im an excited bunny about these meets, I dont know alot about scoobs, the only thing I know is that they are fab and Ive been wanting one for years, oh and where the petrol (super unleaded ) goes and where the excellerater is and the gears and breaks , so I will be very grateful for all your help, tips and information, just dont tell the wife the costs and prices of the upgrades . See some of you on the 8th Oct and the rest on the 17th

cheers Russ

Yeah, no rushing in, have a chat first, Between us we've pretty much covered all of the modding. We'll be able to stear you around the mine field and point you in the direction of best prices etc.

Remember you can get cheaper upgraded parts instead of standard from the dealer!!

www.scoobyparts.com
www.scoobyworld.co.uk

and any number of other places recommended by the rest of the South Wales Scooby's. Most places like Halfrauds, Osaka and Hyeline in Cardiff do bulbs etc.

Most of the shows we go to have trade stands but the For Sale section on here is a real bonus. Us lot in the Wales Section have a good network of contacts, suppliers and sources of info.

I can guarantee that after your first meet you'll have a head full of cartoons, more plans than Baldrick, pockets that reach to the floor and the search for the best interest rate on your plastic. Oh and get an understanding wife (if there is such a thing).

Well Ive just ordered crystal jewel side markers and crystal side repeaters from scooby parts, I just hope they are easy to fit , the last bunch of cars I used to do up were bugs back in the 80's this is something completely different.
