Pete you say your not bothered about the facebook page why then post the link up on here ?
And guys the page was set up not to slag the car off but the fact pete liked to talk utter crap back in the day, which he still does now so has got a reputaion for it, especailly about his cars and what he is gonna do to them, and not listening to decent advise when he asks for it.
The guy who started the page has got more tuned motors of one sort of another than most will ever have, as even I have lost count how many he has now, and its not me before you lot think im the one behing the facebook page.

Does like nice though, I'm not jealous!

i did get some work done on them and the rust that was there was treated. i wanted to put new arches is but couldnt find any and the quotes i was getting to replace them i just couldnt afford. they are solid now altho they dont look amasing if you remove the arch
