Absolutely Dave, for a 500 it has to be the Blue or white - is this a keeper mate and is this engine spec staying???

Very nice car Dave. White 3 doors look good but a white 500 even looks better.


Good luck with fixing the knock!

would love a blue one.

not sure on that Chris, will see what this set up is like when the engine gets sorted,not too sure if its worth spending to get it all back to original spec.

time will tell if i'm keeping it.

nice one mate , sure it will end up as you like it. Few little changes here and there and it will be spot on
good luck with the knock, its only an engine at the end of the day all fixable.
Dose it have the correct engine dave??

thats lovely mate!
Be an animal too with that spec, how are 330mm 6 pots behind 15's?! didn't even think that was possible!

Clive, no it has had a brand new block,pistons etc..fitted in a 200 block,so not original.

Andy, just get it on the road is the first job,sort the knock out,after that fit new wheels then i'm not too sure lol.

Dan, we had to take the calipers off,tie them up and the 15" wheels went on, i thought i would have to take the discs off but no they fitted.

Steve,no track action for this car.

thanks lads.
