Hi guys
Got this gsi and it needs a lot of work doing, and I think I want to bare shell it and bring it back to original ,with all your experience am I better to source parts now while car is complete ,then strip the car down ,or I,m i better to get right in to it and start stripping and source as build happens ,I also think I will need more parts as the strip uncovers the decay .but I,m dead keen on get the shell stripped to see the rot.

I'd get any parts bought ASAP you think you might need. Took me a while to find chassis legs and inner wings when I actually needed them.
good luck with the project.

Silk violet cars are marked as blue mate violet is a shade of blue
if you can find parts and then strip it it will prob be a quicker build if you need any parts let me know can possably sort you out some or point you in the right direction
