The 48-hour challenge

Yeah, the black shell wasn't cheap, but it was cheaper and easier than doing it myself. For the most part, they've done a very nice job on it too, but the damage really pisses me off.

The white car was originally Mattysshop's IAE86. Its changed hands several times in the past few years - the last owner being 86JAP before it got totalled. Sad.



I'm hoping it will end up looking something like this

where did you source out that black shell? i dont remember seeing it 4sale

[86coupe]

Have just found out it used to be this





Seems I now have the remains of two awesome 86's sitting in the shed.

Owned and built by a chap named Craig. Sold to and crashed by a chap named Stuart. Then fixed by someone else, sold again?, sprayed black and sold to me.

Was advertised on DC a couple of weeks ago.

Good luck mate! Mattysshop is a mate of mine and it's great to see his old coupe is still going to good use even after the smash.
