    Wipe it over with Diesel, that'll sort the Red out.

    Warm up the bumpers with a hair dryer.. works like back to black.

    Nice find!

    that battery s **** hot and it was free and the engine was running on two if that, it was fecked. and no its not flame red and i dont know the official name for it either. the 1.6 aint that special ive had done a few tweeks but nothing major. and the derv ive decided the shell must be twisted or something so stripping it and scrapping it

    oh and i got this nova off freecycle, basically if someone has got something they dont want they put it on there for free
