My old girl has been off the road since aug 09, I've done a full underside resto and bay resto in that time, was mot'd last thu and sailed through but it did get there on low loader lol so havnt yet put any miles on and tested to make sure I done everything up properly! Looking to tax it say April and fingers crossed it stays together for the show's etc.

Get it on a jig and fix the fucker, i was looking through the whole of your resto thread the other day and cant believe how far it goes back (in years), all that money and time spent must be worth one more stint?
