My FD has no nose. How does it smell  .........awful!!!

I\'m guessing you\'ve never had your car on a transporter Stu?  If you leave the nose on and try and get the car onto the transporter you\'ll smell even worse!
I should imagine it\'s just been removed for the trip there???

Just stumbled accross this thread now. The rex is lookin sweet mate, especially now you\'ve got the wings back on it. That spoiler is fookin nutz! How did you get her on the back of that wagon? Did you drive it off the 4-poster? Anyways, glad to hear the engine isn\'t dead.
