    hi guys, just got my car on the road so thought i'd post up some pics and share my build

    basically bought this thing and first thing i did was strip it down completely to see what i needed, bought a heap of standard parts just to replace the broken/worn out

    pretty much reco'ed the whole car, from underneath rails, bit of rust repair, spot welds and now looking into engine mods

    took me 6 months and more than 10k to get it where it is

    hope you like it

    thanks
