comments welcome





3weeks after buying it, just 2days before going on holliday this happened to number 2 and 3




so a very good mate of mine @ imperial racing rebuilt it 4 me
i told he to take pic's but.... he didnt!




then!!!!!

high speed and



bonnet came up

ooooooooooooooops

so got a bonnet off me mate but it was blue! i had some black paint off when i painted me wheels so it ended up black!



here are some other pic what i have done












new lighting










new gearbox mounts









got these last week



my roof clock broke so bought this


so from this


to this




had to make new board for it and convert the right hand button
