Man I love that car, if it ever comes up for sale again and I see it, I'm buying it. I'll sell my sister for the money if I have to.

Awesome car, although I reckon it could do with a nice set of 19s these days.

Just some info for you all on this car, it has just come out Sefton Smash in the last few months after some neglection. The car was basically stripped to its undies and tidied up again. I saw what it was like under the paintwork and it was shoddy to say the least. But when it came out from there, it was a million dollars again. I agree to lowering it a bit and change the rims. Chromies are not for these cars I dont think.
Cheers ViGiLaNtE351

you can tell they do their project cars as cheap as possible, not painting engine bays, probably lots of bog instead of getting things smooth, etc |

According to 'sources' the conversion was a little second rate, but to the average eye, wouldnt have really been a problem. When I looked at it, I didnt really see too many bad areas, until I was shown. But in the end, it all came up a million bucks. Hope the owner will keep it in good nick.
