gyles18 · April 23, 2009, 07:21:26 PM

yeah, eventually when i get mine back it will look like that. just need the front lip and lights. cant justify spending more money on something i dont have/havent had for a year haha!
that grey is sweet though....
you got any other plans for it? looks like you\'ve got the engine sorted...

slingo · April 23, 2009, 07:33:05 PM

loads of plans gyles but havent got the budget to suit lol ,im getting married this year so money is abit scarce ! no im doing it slowly and still toying with the engine idea,when you add the cost of bits its not far off a decent built engine,so still not sure but rxmotors are very helpfull !

where is your car at the moment ?

gyles18 · April 23, 2009, 07:36:16 PM

heres another one for you........

ahh congratulations.

i know what you mean with budgets. mine started off very small but just ended up escalating as i just kept thinking, well if i get it done now then i wont need to later.....

my car is up at wgt at the moment getting mapped. looking forward to getting it back.

what do you think of the last pic??

slingo · April 23, 2009, 07:49:10 PM
