Well its been a while since ive updated this, its not that i have given up. Quite the opposite but its been a long tough few months to get where i am and i didnt wanna big up what was happening until it was done, best let the car speak for itself... ill give a rough idea...

I was skint all last year so had to give up on doing any mods, then moved back with my dad n saved like mad and after selling some stuff managed to get enough to cover a respray, so i thought f**k it, and put the car in, 4 weeks was the quote and after many rows and 15 weeks i had to take the car away unfinished.

However, ive spent the last few weeks working my a**e off to get all the bits together and cleaned up and back in the car, along with a few new bits too and its finally looking like a car again! Was a last minute dash and was still rebuilding it sat morning after having thur & fri off work to complete it! :)

Took it to Volksfest this weekend and won top 5 water cooled so well chuffed. Its not perfect and still needs some work but overall im happy :)

Here's a pic the day i got it

thanks guys. Ive built if for me and done what i want and not what i think people will like so i didnt want to go on and on then you lot think its pants, so thought id keep quiet and let the car do the talking. :)

It had a lot of attention at Volksfest which was very flattering. Its not very bling, other than the wheels, just subtle and the whole interior is now matt black and stealthy. :) love it :)

Now onto getting the engine bay sorted :S
