Thanks Rich for putting up some of the pics, and thanks for all the nice comments.
Peteh: The car should be running in about a month or so just a few little bits to sort out and a couple of goodies are due to be delivered within the next week or so.
Christian: Cheers, I have already been warned about these tyres in the wet but to be honest the only time it'll see rain is if I get caught out in it!
TT: When I bought the car it didnt look to sad, it was black all over (sort of), and had tax and MOT so I smoked it around for 6 months or so before stripping it. I also didnt realise how rotten it was.
It was either buy a snotter and completely restore it or buy a minter for about 3-4k or so but then I would have wanted to strip that anyway so it didnt make too much difference, so I bought the snotter!
Cheers
Paul
