surely it can't be as bloody dear as my saff, that thing asks for money as soon as i unlock the doors

but, and the big but, is i love the presence a 3dr has on the road...........so it will be worth every penny/hour/nagging from the wife

If the car is complete its a good start, ihave spent years trying to source small items to finish mine off & usually paid stupid money to get them. Good luck

i have all the trim twice over (that i have been collecting) the car comes with all suspension ,brakes ,diff,prop,bodykit,rear bumper,bonnet with vents, 3dr wheels caps and locks, exst,all fuel lines, tank,pump,cradle, all in car loom

i already have in storage

engine( circa 400 bhp)
g/box
all engine ancilleries
spare whale tail and tailgate
rad,500i/c etc
samco's and all engine bay bling

just bought
f+r bumper awaiting delivery (front bumper is complete)

need a pair of mint front doors in white with internals and glass
complete bush kit for car
loads of goodridge hoses
loasd of powder coating and paint
rear wheel arch repair panels (might just fab some up)
dash complete (although somebody has threatened to give me a mint one of these)

and lots of time

but apart from that, i have nearly everything and then some, i am sure the breakers on here have any silly little bits i may need

may have to go on an ebay frenzy buying and selling a load of bits i have, to fund the project, as i have almost skinted myself with bloody cossie's

why.....because they are worth it
