Had a year out of mincing with cars recently after selling the Neva & getting the Bread Van. Recently got back into mincing with shonky old crock of shiote GM's & as much as it pains me to say it.....

Smashing up your knuckles taking apart a perfectly good 10 year old car for no other reason then "why not" is strangley so enjoyable!?

I can see the appeal (again) only downside is the cost :( that bit I dont like :(

Nothing special, a toy for next PV & some track days/autotesting. Just getting back stuck into the build like, weird having a car in bits again as I said to myself I wouldnt do another as I simply CBA too lol

Satisfying tho none the less. The plan was to buy to sell, but 3 hours after getting home the urge was to strong & I stripped it to bits lol
