the mk2 is my sisters b/fs
It currently runs a 2.1 pinto on 40s and cam!
But as normal he has recently got hold of a cossie. So you have to fear!
It to is in the process of being restored. just had the roof recoverd. and it needs another paint as well as the rims refurbed.! hes got a cage for it so it will be getting stripped as soon as he has time. lol

Why thank you dear ! Cant help it stu ' gotta make myself look attractive to you! Fancy lunch sometime?? LMFAO!

The shell was rotting. and still is. one thing after another. Cp welded fuck outta it. but it wont stand up to track action at the end of the day. and thats my aim! after a few consultations with the boys at riflerange is was decided ' out with the old and in with the new!
