Nice car that mate, About time you bit the bullet and bought it, It has been 2 years since you first wanted it lol.

Do you have the mag it was featured in? if not when i get home ill get you the issue number and you can get yourself a copy if you want.

It looked stunning in the pics on Blackpool seafront, It was a roasting day and i got very burnt while they did the photo's.

Well done mate...Oh and no more questions

Doug. What a fantastic looking car you have there mate. Looks an animal and a pure minter.
Can't wait to see it the flesh and with it ticking over.
Congrats mate. You deserve it.

I think you retain the belt now too
