I joke haha.
Looks like a fair bit of a project, how much did that set you back?
Engine alright?

Re: I just bought a....
Time to discover what a really S*!t handling car is like then....but if it runs it'll make a very nice noise ...just don't paint it orange with an 01 decal on the doors.

Re: I just bought a....
Hahaha! It has no engine... £1827. and it's a project for life
(it was factory an R/T 440.... obviously no engine now :/ Tis ok i want a hemi anyway ^_^ lol)
I've always wanted one. Now i have this to restore when my civic is done.
The plan is drag.... Pro street this mother ! Tubbed arches, cage and a handsome big block
Just to clarify... I will not be getting rid of my civic... i have too much love for it ^_^
But The charger is tied with it (completely different use)
AND.... yes i did buy it widowmaker... won it on eBay

Hope that was typo
Just be sure to keep it safe and secure away from the metal collection guys, trust me they'll take bits if not all of it
Good luck
