well heres my xmas prezzie -
brand new GAZ fully adjustable coilover kit- 70mm slammage pics-
also got the n/s door off the car which means all thats left to come off is the tailgate and the windscreen. Going to start the rust on the n/s tommorow night and get it treated like the o/s. Got a weekend off work too so will hopefully get cracking with the welding

Mate im sure ive said this before on one of the many sites you post all these pics up on, but........ what are your plans for this campus shell?? you seem to of spent months taking off every little part maybe some of its overkill but whatever.
please don't tell me your going to do all this then keep it as a campus? as even if its fully re-painted inside and out it will fetch Ł200 max.
Are you building a GT turbo lump to stick back in? then sticking on a gt turbo kit? if so fair do's
