Default Making a come back

Is it me or are Retro cars, not nessacarilly (spelling) Fords either, making a comeback on the car scene.


Mind you its understandable with some of the shit being released in the last few years. Everything looks the same and the cars have no character to them what so ever.

I just fancied a little project and if you are gonna restore a car you want it to be fun to drive once you have finished it which the S1 is, that and i think there has got to be a profit made!!!!! lol
