When I first fitted the wheels and let it down off the jack the car rested on them (by about an inch and a half!)

    So naturally I made the car fit the wheels! . I did come up to knockhill for a show (nearly rolled it on the track overtaking a diesel! DOH!).

    I built it in the 90's so I figure why not finish it as a tribute to the 90's! I could strap on a GSI bumper and some speedlines and make it like every other nova (no offence to them that have! I like them but what's the point been there, done that!) but why follow the crowd! You gotta be different man!

    Really cant wait till it's finished! There's always gonna be "haters" but who cares it's mine! and I like it!

    Areet! Nee answer on the location eh marra? Nee bosh!

    Aye, I do think I have seen it down there way back when. Did you used to get to the block yards down Seaburn too?
