Is it behind that skip?

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

Engine alright?

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.

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

amazing! just keep the bodywork as it is, on a set of polished centreline solid centres, fully built engine... would be awesome!

Nope! Bargin price. Someone is selling one in the same condition but with an engine... for $18500 in the states.

But don't worry it'll be stored in a safe place

It is indeed a big project and i'm fixed on one thing.... It's not going back standard.
Was contemplating a jag V12 twin turbo.... I'd love a supercharged 440 or hemi but $$$$$$$$

flatliner... LOL! Rat look charger

Sorted

Feel free to add me on the book... (facebook) gwenga@hotmail.co.uk - Shane Wedley
Progress won't be happening for a while as the civic comes first.

Chuffed to bits though
