[Mike.]

hope you stripped it for parts before it was taken, can't believe it really, you was making real good progress mate

[Dod]

WTF is wrong with you, that was a decent shell, easy repaired too. Why'd you dump it?

[Adam]

Shame mate :|
I thought you were making good progress.
What was wrong with it?

[shy witness]

a pity mate...................theres nothing like gettin right in2 the bollox with a project...................just take it as a learning curve.............and practice 4 the next 1.............. :D ...how bad woz it....and wot put you right off in the end???

[novaco]

well where do i start!

erm....it needed a new door, 2 new sills, inner wings, suspension turrets, another rear arch, boot floor had a hole in, under the rear seats there was a hole, needed a new slam panel too...... and i got offerd another nova shell with not one bit of rust and no body work needed doing so i took it. i wanted to kepp the other one to and to carry on the project but i couldnt as the lack of money and space otherwise i would have got if finished and maybe made it into a track car!

lol..is that it? woulda took few weeks tops. I repaired twice as much as that and mine is fit for another few years on the road. If people give up just as soon as a lil bit of rust turns up, there'd be none left!

[novaco]

im stil at school though so money and time are realy tight!

dont get me wrong i would have loved to carry on and get it finished but i just couldnt manage it not along with loads of other work that i need to do!

[Mel]

I was until the last 5 months..hence why my "project" took 12 months, as it took time/money that I didn't have, but it was definately worth the wait!

Good luck on the next one tho fella
