Hi all..

Just thought Id post a few pics of my car just as I got my digital camera working.
I bought it off one of the forum members here a few months back.

Im going to be getting a Panda paint job fairly soon, so these will be the before pics.

Also planned: (in order)
- Some better seats.. (any one got any seats that with rails.. need just a bolt on)
- Watanabe/konig wheels
- 4ag motor depening on when the 4ac dies.

BEFORE:

They will look better when they are painted the same colour as the car. Keep the sideskirt.

my heart (and my pocket) says i wanna do it but with my way of life atm i get very limited time and i have noone to be with me during the process who knows whats going on when i get stuck so either it'll take me ages to do on my own or i will cough-up and let a workshop complete it...all over the place atm
