should be done within a few weeks fella. Theres loads and loads of stuff i should of done to be honest... This car is basically for me and to know what i can and cannot do.

This was my first car (Full respray) so that in it's self is a a failry big achivment. My college tutor sprayed the other one baby blue nova (e967anb), So for me it was more about putting the paint onto it and getting a nice finish as I want to be a sprayer not a prep man. But, with eveything you have to start somewhere.

It will most certainly be finished by trax, and then from there it more than likly be put upfor sale. But then again, all that might change and i might end up keeping it who knows. Apart from Riggys help (:thumb: You da man pmsl), this car has been bought, stripped, repaired, painted, flatted, and polished by me. I'm happy with it, but i know its flaws and learnt a lot from it. Why i'm posting all this garbage i never know lol.

Anyways, Engine needs picking up, as soon as it has been then it will get thrown straight in. I just need a nice set of wheels, coilovers, GSI interior and it's done. :thumb:
