    read the build thread from page 1 over the course of the day at work. awesome car i love the style of it and the interior.

    certainly give me some motivation to do a bit in the garage tonight.
    Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and proclaiming, “DAMN, what a ride!!”

    Had a good look round this at Billing. although on the Friday night....

    In the time it took to take our stuff up to the Hotel room and return to the car for more bits I found it next to mine!



    Must have walked past you on the way out! Very nice car, do like a white Nova!

    Haha thanks, I purposely parked next to you knowing that you wouldn't have the doors swinging about etc! Yeah we were just checking in and droppng our bags, was dirty after 400 mile drive and also just towed my mates nova in to the site after snapping a shaft 200yrdsb from the petrol station! Thought I'd be hunting the auto jumble for a rear chassis leg haha!

    Hope to have a little strip down this winter and address a few things that annoy me, might even have the engine out too and strip back the seam sealer is I laid it on a bit thick. I'll either go for a thin brush or maybe have a go at smoothing it. Perfect opportunity to go LET too but I'll probably just keep it as it is. Some pics from billing...
