Recognise this





Just acquired it from a chap whos gone back to work at Dovercourt, couldn't believe it when saw yours and Han's name on the receipts!
Not looking too pretty at the moment, hope to get it back up to standard and use for track days

We only picked it up Friday, for much cheapness! Needs a bit of a tidy, decent brakes, remove parcel shelf and back seats, set of Toyos, cheap track car

Not likely, considering haven't seen a Fletcher in over 5 years anyway, luckily Steve didn't cause any permanent damage to the cab

Dovercourt Colchester, the chap worked for Underwoods where J works and now back to Dovervourt.

I am sure with a wash and a polish / T-cut it will look much better, the paint itself doesn't look too faded under the dirt.

Poor thing has seen better days Hannah, I am sure it didn't look like it does now when you had it. Its solid underneath though

I think it'll look nice with a little bit of work. Red normally comes back okay if you do it right.

And literally hours of polishing/t-cut, the plastic (front bumper and kit arches) still not great but 100% better, I am shattered! J did a great job shampooing the interior!
