Well finally picked the car up last night,,,

... runs but bottom ends knocking.. but the shell solid, really suprised, original battery tray stil. but needs chassis legs welding..
plans are to tidy her up, new engine, and get her running and hopefully make a few shows..
well made the first changes today... 88 spec bumper back on..
and these also turned up today...
will be slow updates as cars at the old`s... [/list]
