this particular 3 door had "allegedly" been parked in a barn and was found minus an engine and been restored ala overhaulin (and not pimp my ride) in 3 weeks and was "revealed" to the owner at ford fair

what gets me is how you could restore a car from barn find condition to as new in just 3 weeks on a small budget and wihtout anyone knowing about it outside of the production team so THATS the info i was after if anyone could shed any lig

the reason i've waited is because i'm not sure if there is a feature in this or not for the mags and i'm not sure who the original owner was or who supplied the bits

sounds interesting although like u say hard work to do on a low budget and in 3 weeks
