If you catch me on a bad when ive seen my arse with my saph which is getting a regular thing now i could be tempted to sell my kit

marky g

hi . theres not been much happening with saph for while due to it being outside and with me not getting home untill its dark from work. but things are going to start to take shape again now
while out side a metal wheelie bin thing has smacked the front wing and creased it so ive decided now to do a full respray on the whole car as iam not very keen on the red and this has given me a good excuse to change it. so pictures will be getting put up of it in the body shop over the next few weeks.
ive also done a few more little jobs on it and will update them this week end when i get a bit of light

marky g

Now for sale. Or px swaps

Hi thought I would update my project. After being messed around for months with something's making the project not progress, and from other commitments. Things are looking up, iam moving to it to a friends body shop in the morning were we are going to give it a full respray and sort a few little dings out. I have a few colours in mind the main two choices being. Dark aubergine and imperial blue ???????
Ive done all I've also sorted out everything Else so it's ready to be motd as soon as its out of the paint shop. I will post pics up of it tommorow in its last home as being a red saph
My apologies for putting the project on and of to all interested viewers

the saph is now in the paint shop. Had abit of a scary moment in it this morning when turning into a cross road in my golf with the saph behind me on a tow pole, my friend in the saph for some reason decide not to turn aswell. Pulling the back end of golf out drift style causing us to. Jack knife but luckily my td golf had the power to pull the front of the saph and the golf straight before both of my cars were wrecked prep work is going to start Monday morning on the car

marky g

Ye was very close we came home the same way and there four big black lines heading straight towards a lamppost iam not sure what colour to do it yet we are torn between the blue or the dark aubergine.
