Its either Swan, or little angel. My mum suggested KaTie P because of the reg (after jordan) but that just cheapens the whole idea!

You can always keep the original bits and put a few mods on
How much did you pay for it if you don't mind me asking

Its late 1987 actually, 15th December to be precise! Had her out today as it was a nicer day, engine was stone cold though and it started cutting out at the lights/roundabout a few times, didnt think id get it started again but it went after a few go's.

Kinda got me worried, but my dad reckoned id been reving it to much when the engine was to cold, the steering is really really stiff too. The guy who had it before was in his 50's so im guessing it hasnt really been opened up properly.

Pics of me? Hmm dont wanna look like a poser but I'll have a look for a few when I get home

I do Choi kwang Do and Im black belt orange tag, its only kids I help out with, but I always get into trouble for teaching them more advanced stuff - still thats the way I was taught it does them no harm if theyre shown correctly!

To be honest ive always been labelled bigheaded so nothings changed haha

One thing im worried about, my next door neightbour told me 2 rough looking guys drove up my street and stopped at my car, got out and started writing stuff down. He came out th house and they jumped back in the car and were away If anyone touches my baby girl so help me god
