well last week dropped a set of ladders on the front end and wings so a fair bit of work to be done not happy thought about applying the course i did last year so got to grip with the wings the passengers side is done but i have a large crease in the drivers side its all down to cash which I will not spend on the build now if I cannot fix this then I will be parting the car out,  :( how ever some cleverly made plates and some carbon fibre hydro dipping rather than spending cash on a spray job might work I am half way through a front end build so it might work out fine in the end.


aaaaaaaaaaaaH Bloody Cars : :'(

O Dear, I thought it was only front end damage and we could look forward to a re-styled RX-8 , no romping off to the Netherlands next year then  :(

Yes, my thoughts exactly... :(
Power is nothing without control. Weight is enemy of performance, handling and braking.

Tony, dont do it ! Far easier to repair than take apart and dealing with all the vultures....
Repair it and enjoy it for as long as you can.  Sell the ladder!

OMG Tony, what's going on mate ??

I thought mine had suffered some decision making damage (still not agreed with my insurance), but given your investment of time, effort and money in this car, I thought it would be yours forever !!

Hi Chris.......Nope Amanda wants me to move on plus I cant be bothered with it any more I got a new contract starting soon for a few months ( work sort of military....!!!  ) and she dose not want it laying around in bits had two tyre kickers for bits but I will not drop the price just Vultures at the moment now i got it on a german and french club for sale we will see how things will go as I got around ten people turning up over the week end. if I don't get what I want I put it off the road in my other look up till next year :(

exiled-viking

well I had 7 out of ten viewings at stuff what,s wrong with people   :angry5: :angry5: :angry5: :angry5: tell them the price on the phone and what do they want the bits for less than half the price you said.......!!! well they can GO FORTH & multiply in other words F*** OFF the bits and car are not for sale...

Going to empty the lock up out over the next week and shove it in there till next year ...... ( Amanda,s Not happy but Hay~ho dog house again...!!! going back to the Motor Bike nothing to big anything around the 750cc will do.. )
