Welcome to PF. Uncle J predicts we will see some proper car leaking through in 2006. Shame they are all in Norway. Keep us updated.

Im still having problems with the paintjob, everytime i call him, he tells me to call back in 14 days, because he dont have time, another painter was looking at the car last week, and going to give me a price this week. Everything with the chassi is at a standstill. And the conrods has`nt arrived from usa.
But some new parts is shopped in.

I finally found a painter, who could take the job, so the car has been away for 2 weeks now. I have startet with the engine, and it`s slowly comming together.

Yes, its just to stiffen up. This is my first sierra, and I was told by several people that the car is very soft in the front.

I'm loving it men! The only thing I don't really like is that the shell is not a real 3dr one, but if yiu have done all the reinforcements and that stuff I'm sure it will ride even better that a real 3Dr one!

Good luck!

After nearly two months, the car is back from the paintshop.



The engine is just waiting for some few parts, before the adjustment.
