so one must ask...why not make the thread tomorrow?
all my other thread have never had photos and have always been full of nothing much happening. tried to get as many photos as possible caus ei know how much all you guys looooove photo's.
anyway. the car was a great buy though the body was very, very rough, having bits of white paint covering up rust blemishes everywhere, pretty much painted the whole car with pressure pack primer and touch up paint. never done any body work at all, was fun using the bog, though will eventually pull the right rear quarter out and weld in a section as it's pretty dodgey at the moment. got knocked back at its roadworthy inspection so had to put carpet in and run stock rims. will get a full specs list up soon, lots of fun to drive!

In faith there is enough light for those who want to believe and enough shadows to blind those who don't.

rough run down of what's been done so far.
- replace dash
-touch up bonnet and paint boot
- fix up rear left guard as bog was cracking
- repaint bumpers, side mirrors and front chrome trims with black trim paint
- change drivers side door and repaint as old door had massive dents and a bend, chuck all stock stuff in for rwc
