Hi mate....

Car is all done now (arch/and little bits etc) its all in primer & should have it back this week now...THANK GOD

It's a mate who's doing the work. He's really good. He's done my mates Escort Cossie, Slowpoke sah & Stu MSD's old Smokestone Saph

I keep changing my mind about the lights, but im just gonna put it back together for now and when its back from Germany strip it and put the standards and ambers back in, so it should be all done for Central Day

Coming along nicely Paul

Can't wait to see the end result. There's always been something about your car that stands out from the rest, I can't put my finger on what it is, but I just really really like it.

Keep up the good work!

I got a cunning plan for mine now, it's a bit more broke than it was before! (check out the latest issue for more details)
